Clear message

Summary

This specification will discuss what's needed to take the the simple and concise backup solution that was introduced in dapper, an make it a solid, high quality solution that will be shipped in Edgy Eft, and form the foundation to later on develop a complete light dependency

Rationale

Providing an easy-to-use backup solution that's suitable for non-expert users is important. Expert users should install and/or use a more sophisticated backup system. Part of the rationale is to tell the user exactly what he has to do, rather than leave it for him to think up a backup schema, and take decisions about when/if to backup himself.
