[xwiki-dev] How to backup standalone instalation

[Vincent Massol]

Hi Alain,

I think you've already asked this question. It's bad form to repost  
the same question again in the hope someone will answer without  
referring to the first question. It's also bad form the keep asking  
the same question without allowing more than 2 days between your  
different posts (so far you've sent 3 emails on the same topic). It's  
even worse when someone already answered your first question: http:// 
tinyurl.com/yw8pks

Last, it's bad form to cross post to the different xwiki mailing  
lists (you've sent on both xwiki users and dev, in the hope of  
getting someone to answer you). BTW this question should NOT be  
posted to the dev list as it's a user question.

Hope my first answer on xwiki-users helps you. If not I'm curious to  
know what's missing but please answer on xwiki-users.

Thanks
-Vincent
