Observer Comments
I downloaded the demo. Did one simple copy backup, then moved onto a versioned backup to the same location. This caused the beachball to spin endlessly, with System Monitor reporting the application wasn't responding. So I force quit. Now it hang on starting with "Trying to connect to Executor". While it looks as if it has potential, my experience seems to indicate that it has some teething issues.
