* Started working on Cobian Reflector 2.0.
I will be redisigning the program to fix some bad decitions I took in the first version. This will allows:
- Better compression logic
- A remote client option
- The current ftp support of Reflector is not very satisfactory due to limitations in the FTP libraries that I'm using. I will try to substitute them with a better library.
- Support for 7zip
- Support for splitting archives
- Better handling for monolithic compression that was added as a patch into the first version
- Support for some cloud sources and destinations
Some of these features would take years to implement by myself, but there are some commercial libraries on the market that could be purchased to be used with the program. There are other expenses like the program's certificate that must be renewed, the web hosting, etc that are recurrent.
So if you'd like to contribute to the project, please consider making a small donation to the project.
