 * backupwordpress, in my case, does not work correctly : it generates 250MB files
   in the backup directory, (possibly at each user interaction).
    I am just trying
   to desinstall it. I used the automatic instalataion by WP 3.1

 * I recently took over development of this plugin from the previous owner and have
   just released a major new version which is a complete re-write of the plugin.
 * I’d love it if you’d check it out and let me know what you think.
