Please keep me updated on the WP 3.0 Multi-Site status, as well.

Also, do you have any other information about using BackupBuddy with Multi-Site? Could S3 be a solution to large file backups, such as the ones that are likely to occur in a WP 3.0 Multi-Site build?

Also, do you have any other information about using BackupBuddy with Multi-Site?

I would love to see a <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/home" rel="nofollow">Dropbox</a> integration though since this service provides a good balance of an online/offline backup solution, and its pretty popular with the indy developer crowd. There are already a few <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=dropbox&sort=" rel="nofollow">WordPress Dropbox plugins</a>, but they look like they were written before the official API was released and now dont seem to be too stable. The <a href="https://www.dropbox.com/developers" rel="nofollow">Dropbox API</a> appears to be well documented, with a solid community behind it. Anyone else support this notion? Thanks again Great work guys.

This update will allow you to store your backups on the Amazon S3 system provided redundancy and added safety to your backup files. Before this update there was no way to save your backups to S3 except manually. This update allows for both sending individual files to S3 as well as scheduled backups being sent to S3.

This upgrade adds the ability for the software to backup to Amazon's S3 servers as well, but you'll need to pay them for the space you use. For some reason, I don't think you can FTP into S3 - and you can't FTP into Rackspace Cloud Files either. This upgrade will not back up the files you have on S3 - at least I'm pretty certain it will not.

I store most of my audio and video files on s3 and use your plug in to back up my WL/WP membership site. Do you mean backup buddy will now in addition to backing up my wp files also backs up content I have on s3? Or have I mis-understood?
