Exporting workes as follows: Click on "Find", and switch the radio button to XML or CSV.
If you click on "Search", you will be prompted where to save the resulting "export.xml"
or "export.csv". I did this through the search page because you can then specify som
filters, in order not to export all records.

The XML charset in the first line was missing. I fixed that, new version under CVS. Or
you can manually change the first line to

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
