Backup and restore

[Paul Flint]

Dear Fellow Edubuntu'rs

The FITS Lab is behind the curve with mondo/mindi, but we are catching up.

I note with growing excitement that this product has actually inspired my
(otherwise)  excellent associate (jelkner) to BACK UP!  Any product that
can accomplish that is touched by the hand of god.  Who are we to stand in
the path of righteousness?

lead and....

Kindest Regards,

Paul Flint
