David Steele, maintainer of the popular pgBackRest backup and restore project
for
PostgreSQL, has archived
the project and announced that it is no longer being maintained.

After a lot of thought, I have decided to stop working on pgBackRest. I did
not come to this decision lightly. pgBackRest has been my passion project for
the last thirteen years, and I was fortunate to have corporate sponsorship for
much of this time, but there were also many late nights and weekends as I worked
to make pgBackRest the project it is today, aided by numerous
contributors. Every open-source developer knows exactly what I mean and how much
of your life gets devoted to a special project.

Since Crunchy Data was sold, I have been maintaining pgBackRest and looking
for a position that would allow me to continue the work, but so far I have not
been successful. Likewise, my efforts to secure sponsorship have also fallen far
short of what I need to make the project viable.
