Backup WP.COM database
-
I would like to know how easy it will be for someone to move from a WP.com account to a self hosted account running WP2.0 – how can I backup the entries / comments etc

I don’t think you can right now, though it seems there are plans to allow that in future. Right now, the way people are handling this is through rss, though that seems in some cases to be problematic as regards comments – while posts go through fine, comments don’t seem to import.
[At least, that’s how it was LAST week. Don’t know if there’s been a change since then!]

As far as I know, provided the wordpress.org software has been upgraded to the latest release which contains the technosailor plug-in then importing the contents of a wordpress.com blog into it is very easy.

Yes, check out the FAQ blog linked at the head of the forums.
Gotta admit that I’m surprised you found this thread this old as this topic gets asked 3-5 times a week currently.
