G'day Greg, thanks for fixing my issue - I can now use Blogger Backup through the proxy (v1.0.0.2 Alpha).

Can't wait to see the next improvement coming out of the "Greg's Cool Thing" factory!

Cheers, Thomas

ROCK ON!

You're my first confirmation that it works for someone else...

Any suggestions or anything you'd like to see?

I'm currently working on supporting other save formats. Like creating a single Atom XML file instead of one per post (which will be in 1.0.0.3), BlogML. And I'm seriously thinking about HTML, PDF and WordML save as formats...

But I'm open to adding anything else that's cool... ;)

I actually have a single XML file update/version that I need to release... (I just used it as a matter of fact to back up my blog prior to upgrading to the New Blogger).

I'll get this version out this week or this weekend...

(Yeah, yeah, I know, I've been promising this update for months now... still this time I mean it... really... ;)

This tool is a godsend. Thanks so much for writing it.

Would LOVE to see the single (or, perhaps max post count) XML file.
