2.0 to 2.0.x or 2.x upgrade scripts

[Richard Emberson <re...@edgedynamics.com>]

If one uses Slide 2.0 (when it comes out) and later wants to upgrade to
2.0.x or, in general, 2.x will there be an upgrade script that can
be used to migrate the existing data?
Can one dump all of the data/metadata into some flat file, upgrade, and
the load Slide from the flat file?


Thanks.

2.0.x releases will be for maintenance / bugfixing only and are 
guaranteed to be fully compatible to 2.0. As a general rule of thumb 2.x 
releases will be backward compatible as well. If they are not, there 
must be a *very severe* reason for this and migration scripts will be 
made available.

A general export/import mechanism is currently not available, but more 
than one solution has already been discussed.
