Issue Summary
The Backup module is no longer maintained. Perhaps this module and Backup could be merged? To be frank Backup Client-Server isn't a proper name for a backup module. It sounds far too complicated for users just looking for a module to backup their stuff.

#1
Xano, thanks for the idea.
I've thought about breaking out the backup portion to keep it simple and making the additional functionality into hooks + separate modules. This would then replicate what the backup.module does. I will contact the (ex)maintainer of backup.module.

Hi, I am the (ex)maintainer of backup.module. :-)
I have no objection to making use of my code in a merge. It's all in CVS, and it's all under the GPL, so there shouldn't be any problems.
If any of my code is unclear or confusing, feel free to drop me a line.

Good to see your enthusiasm!

We chatted but didn't get any momentum. Maybe we'll get back to it later. In the mean time I've released a more feature rich 6.x version.
