Hi Gary,

I haven't heard from Nick since December at least - I don't know what 
happened to him, I hope he's OK.

Working from the tarball you supplied for me, boxbackup-0.09-gary.tar.gz, 
and the released bb 0.09 tarball, I can generate a patch for your 
modifications. If you like, I can upload a patched copy to SVN for the 
other developers to browse.

No comments except that I guess it's working fine for you and Nick :-) Do 
you remember anything about the location of the code in question, so that 
I can have a look in more detail?

Cheers, Chris.
