The backups aren't taking that long. There is a file that Owen has to check that he has been forgetting to.

Can't say when the backup started, but it was still in progress around 08:30 CET, which AFAICT is far off from the said time 01:00 UTC. I could be wrong though, timezones have always confused me.

There was an issue with symlinks and the nightly backup script which basically caused the backup message to not be removed. Thought I'd fixed it yesterday but apparently not. Should actually be fixed now. Sorry about that.
