*ALL* content?

What good is a backup if you can't restore from it? (Rhetorical question.)

Good thing I, and some others, grab personal copies of things as soon
as someone says they've uploaded something. But even I don't have a
copy of everything. I hope that between several of us, we can get back
to where we were... when we get a chance.

However -- how can any of us feel confident that after we spend hours
restoring the site, it won't choke again and return us to this point?
I'd done quite a bit before this last collapse, so I'm quite
unenthusiastic about spending the time to do it again. "Completely
stable" sounds good, but I'm not convinced.

I am *this close* to abandoning Alfresco and moving to the ODFAuthors
site. Would be no more work than getting Alfresco back to working
order.
