As usual, we provide a list of last week's releases and we are pleased to share the torrents we are seeding. In our Option Poll we ask readers which tools they use for making backups of important files. Plus we share some tips on how to create backups with the rsync utility. We also welcome Sam Hartman to his new role as Debian's Project Leader and talk about Ubuntu Studio extending the life of a past release. In our News section we discuss Manjaro's ARM port getting more official recognition, Obarun releasing tools for working with the S6 init implementation, and Ubuntu developers working toward improved ZFS support. Our Feature Story has more details on this intriguing project. Alpine also runs on several hardware architectures and is reportedly very lightweight. Alpine ships with an uncommonly used system library, does not use the GNU userland tools and uses OpenRC as its init software instead of the more commonly used systemd. This week we decided to turn our attention toward a project which stands out by doing several things differently: Alpine Linux. There are a lot of Linux distributions, hundreds in fact, and sometimes groups of them look similar, particularly those which reside in the same family or have the same goals. Welcome to this year's 16th issue of DistroWatch Weekly!
