[wp-hackers] How to export the wordpress posts using XMLRPC?

[Nikhil]

Here is what I did:

Updated my single php.ini with the following settings: to download my
>1000 posts.

---
max_execution_time = 900
max_input_time = 900
memory_limit = 256M
post_max_size = 100M
upload_max_filesize = 100M
---

That's all... it did the trick!
