ec2-snapshot-filesystem for taking backups of EBS volumes

I just released ec2-snapshot-filesystem over there at code.webfactory.de.

It's a wrapper script around Eric Hammond's ec2-consistent-snapshot that further simplifies usage, takes care of deleting old snapshots and automagically detects and handles md devices (software RAID), XFS filesystems and running MySQL database servers.

Please see the readme file for more detailed instructions.
