===Webdav Calendar Backup System=== | |||
To reiterate, using 0.3a1 does pose a possible risk of dataloss. In order to mitigate this risk as much as possible, this release also incorporates a data-backup system '''for webdav calendars.''' Prior to uploading new changes to a webdav calendar, Sunbird will create a backup copy of the current state of the file called | |||
<tt>calBackupData_<some number>_edit1.ics </tt> | |||
The previous backup will become | |||
<tt>calBackupData_<some number>_edit2.ics </tt> | |||
and so forth. Another set of 3 backup copies is updated once every 24 hours and end in "day1.ics", etc. All of these backup files can be found in the "Backup Data" folder, within your profile folder. (See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile#Sunbird) These files should be able to be directly uploaded to restore your calendar to the previous state. If this happens, please follow the standard bug-reporting procedure to alert the developers of the problem. | |||
