This was a mixed Thanksgiving weekend for open source communities. We
had a renewed PR onslaught from proprietary software vendors ("Linux
is anti-commercial") and even hardball politics.
But there were lot of interesting announcements made: Firefox 1.5,
codenamed "Deer Park" will finally be unwrapped on November 29th (I
have been using the beta, and I love it). Among all this activity and
with little fan-fare, the Amanda project launched its new Wiki and Forums.

But Bacula's founder, Kern Sibbald, is committed to format stability. The format is documented and therefore I think you can read your old taped even in 10,20 years (if your hardware is in place, that is).
There are statically linked restore tools and even a rescue disk so you can do a bare-metal restore.
