Hi

I finally released collective.recipe.backup 2.0 which now backs up 
blobstorage.  The backup is done using rsync and hard links to save 
space amd make backups faster.  On Windows you probably want a simple 
copy; do that by giving the recipe the option use_rsync = false.

Sensible defaults should still be in place, so usually you should not 
have to add any options to start backing up your blobstorage.  But 
options are available if needed.  I cleaned up the documentation.

See http://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.recipe.backup

Feedback and fixes are welcome.  The code is in the collective:
https://svn.plone.org/svn/collective/buildout/collective.recipe.backup/trunk

Happy backupping!
