ben ? t'as pas encore l'habitude des logiciels libres ?
Ceux qui ont une doc correcte, accessible et compréhensible ne sont pas légion. Il y en a, mais ils sont très et trop rares.
C'est, amha, le point faible du logiciel libre.
A moins que je me trompe, Amanda n'est pas un logiciel libre. Dans ce cas ta remarque n'a plus lieu d'être, enfin si mais il faudra remplier logiciels libres par logiciels propriétaires, et là je serai en plus d'accord avec toi ;)
Voici un extrait significatif de la license d'amanda

IMHO je pense qu'on peut considerer Amanda comme un produit libre. C'est d'ailleurs le seul outils de backup valable pour le monde unix qui entre dans cette categorie
lu sur lwn:
Enhanced Software Technologies shuts down Commerce, May 15 (Tuesday) We've received word from multiple sources that Enhanced Software Technologies, the maker of the BRU backup package, has been shut down. EST was a successful company in the Unix and Linux backup market for years; it was acquired about a year and a half ago by Atipa Linux Solutions. Now, as part of the ongoing retrenchment at Atipa, EST has been closed.
Also heard from more than one source is the rumor (we have no hard verification of this) that a competitor is attempting to purchase the rights to BRU in order to take the product off the market. We do not know if this is true, but this sort of thing is the kind of risk that one takes with proprietary software. BRU users may find themselves looking for a new solution.
We're researching the story; we'll post information as we get it.
