Switching to go

Because I only use Linux for a year now, I decided to move the whole project to a more cross-platform language. First I wanted to rewrite everything in Java or C++ because both are interesting languages (I have a lot of experience in writing Java code and a bit in writing C++ code).

Nevertheless I choosed go (or 'golang') as the language I'll continue (or 'revive') this project. Go is a very new language (about 3 years old) and is a really interesting, easy to learn and nice language.
I hope the new version of SimpleBackup will be easier to use, less buggy, more powerfulland fancier than the current version.

Until I created a stable version, the current 1.3.0.0 stays the latest version (and won't get any updates or fixes so far).

If you're interested in the developement, have a look on the git repo for all internal stuff: https://github.com/hauke96/SimpleBackup

Thanks for reading :D
