Hi all,

Has anyone got a pre-release or development server running in parallel with a
'live' server?

We would like to have dev, pre and live servers, and make data live on some
kind of release cycle.  In particular, I am wondering how we would transfer
data from pre to live.  I can see a few options:

1. database dump (e.g. mysqldump) from pre to live, however this wouldn't
   allow selective upgrading of data from 'pre' to 'live', which would be
   essential I think (papers/data awaiting publication would hold back other
   experiments).

2. some kind of migrator program - in the style of the base1->2 migrator,
   including analysis steps

3. using batch loaders, load data from scratch on live server (and re-run
   analysis steps)

any more ideas/thoughts?  much appreciated!

cheers,
Bob
