I'll admit that the logo nearly got me using Bacula instead of DAR, but
making Bacula work with anything other than tapes appears to be agony.
(I'm using a three-stage CD-R / CD-RW-incremental / CD-R rolling backup
regime, where things either have to be cdrecorded *or* packet-written
depending on which medium I'm writing to. Makes the backup scripts kind
of complicated.

I guess I could have multisession-written the CD-RW, but I hate
multisession. It's nasty enough having to use it on the CD-Rs...)
