Borg backup (https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/ https://borgbackup.readthedocs.io/)
Borg is a cross-platform (linux - osx - bsd) backup tool with deduplication, encryption and compression. It's written in Python (>95 %) with some Cython and C for low-level bit bashing.
> What do you hope to build this month?
We're working towards the release of 1.1.0 which may occur at the end of this month or the next. It includes a lot of features and general improvements already, but there's always something to do!
> What kind of skills do you need?
We can always use more testers and people writing better documentation. Code contributions are always welcome as well - test improvements, bug fixes, new features and so on.
There has been initial work on a native Windows version to the point that the basic features work, but it would really benefit from an active Windows developer.
