From what I have seen of backuppc I also agree it might be a good one
to have on the list.

My main thoughts at this point would be to compose a list of our
requirements (what are we planning to backup, how much data, type of
rotation, etc).
I do agree with Mike that adding home directories to the list of what we
back up would probably be worthwhile, especially since a few people have
lost things in the past. The native ssh support would also be a good thing.
Once we have a list of requirements the backup packages can be better
compared to see how well they meet our needs.
