Despite having almost zero time for peerbackup, I resist to stall its development. My exams finish in mid February, but there're some things that I can do meanwhile.
I need to test the concepts I've been learning and explaining on previous posts, so I think it's time for writing some actual code.
The plan is: pick a file and split it in blocks. For these blocks, calculate their adler32 (rolling checksum) and hash codes, encrypt them and copy the pieces to another directory. Once this is done, try to restore the file. Then modify it and update the backup.
What I want is to develop and test locally as much functionality as possible. I expect the networking part of peerbackup to be the most difficult one, so it will have to wait. I will be updating the repository as new functionaly is added.
