Goshdarnit!

Something has gone wrong with our servers. It’s probably Matt’s fault.

We’ve just been notified of the problem.

Hopefully this should be fixed ASAP, so kindly reload in a minute and things should be back to normal.

The browser is trying to open the export as a page, not download it.

Can you try with Chrome?

The browser test page tells me that firefox 16 is the most up to date version?

You are currently using...
Firefox 16
This is the most current version.

Whenever I try to export it 'tries' for ages and then just times out.
I did mange to download the xml file one time but it was completely empty.
Are there any other ways of backing up my blog?
Has anyone else had this problem?
thanks :)
