Quick thoughts -- this will come up for every release until we decide on #2. The con for #2 will always be there until we finally switch over. I think it's less impact to have a more manual upgrade between release 1 and 2 than between later releases. As long as we can provide at least a manual upgrade process with well defined steps so that the early adopters don't have to re-create their environments, I think we should go with #2.
