Hi Thomas, Matthias,

>From the thinBackup web page:

"Please let us know if you would have another option or feature for this plugin 
by simply enter an issue or write us an email. THANKS"

  I've been using your thinBackup client and it's worked out great. We're now 
starting to take advantage of Jenkins built-in web server whose content is 
stored in the  JENKINS_HOME\userContent folder. I'd like to request a feature 
such that content within this folder could optionally be included in the 
backup. The entry field for the settings might work similar to other plugins 
which allow a list of files (and wildcards) to be specified, but this is simply 
a suggestion.

For example:
      Files within userContent folder to backup:   index.html, topic1\foo.html, 
topic2\myfile.txt   => backup specific files

or 

     Files within userContent folder to backup:   *\*   => backup all folders 
and files, recursively

or

     Files within userContent folder to backup:   *\*.html   => backup all 
.html files, recursively


In keeping with the spirit of a "thin" backup, it would be sufficient to simply 
backup files directly under userContent or perhaps only specific files (first 
example above). However, obviously, it would be much more flexible if it could 
include any content (files or folders) within userContent. 

Thanks for considering this new feature,
Steve
