Pybackpack 0.5.0 - Obligatory Catchy Release Tagline

Pybackpack 0.5.0 is now available. It includes some big changes behind the scenes including:
- Added gettext (string translations) support
- Substantially refactored code to make it easier to maintain/develop (ongoing...)
- Better progress monitoring, particularly with respect to mkisofs
- More sane prompting for SSH passwords for remote backups
- Various minor tweaks and fixes
I'm quite excited about this release. Although pybackpack hasn't changed much visually or functionally, the changes made since the last release will make the development process smoother and future changes easier to integrate.
For those who might be interested, I've now filed a Debian ITP for pybackpack and I've submitted an RFS for it too (see pybackpack's page on mentors.debian.net) so hopefully we'll see pybackpack in Debian some time soon.
I'm eager to get plenty of feedback about this release so please head over to the pybackpack download page to check it out and please report bugs on the trac.
