GetSimple 3.1 Beta Cut r506 (July 1, 2011)

[polyfragmented]

I'm testing 3.1 on a new webhoster, so far the experience has been stellar. Their config doesn't have ZipArchive installed though, so the support link in the admin area shows the exclamation mark since not all requirements have been met.

I was surprised to see that GS's backup feature still works and simply produces a .tar file instead of a .zip file, nice. I'm wondering if the notification can be switched off somehow though since it might irritate customers.
