Manent is an algorithmically strong backup andarchival program. It features efficient backup toanything that looks like storage. Currently itsupports plain filesystems ("directories"), FTP,and SFTP. Planned are Amazon S3, optical disks,and email (SMTP and IMAP). It can work (makingprogress towards finishing a backup) over a slowand unreliable network. It can offer onlineaccess to the contents of the backup. Backed upstorage is completely encrypted. Backup isincremental, including changed parts of largefiles. Moved, renamed, and duplicate files willnot require additional storage. Several computerscan use the same storage for backup, automaticallysharing data. Both very large and very small filesare supported efficiently. Manent does not rely ontimestamps of the remote system to detect changes.

Changes:
This release adds Unicode support for Linux and Windows. File names are now stored internally in UTF-8 (formerly ASCII). Manent should now be able to back up and restore files with Unicode names, and move them seamlessly from Linux to Windows and back. The tests pass, but please try to process files with Unicode names in your configuration to spot any additional issues early.
