Upgrading a production site to the development version of CakePHP that will become 2.0 makes no sense. The final version 2.0 is not released yet, and the developers have provided no guidance on when it will be completed. It might be tomorrow, it might be next year. In the mean time, you might run into issues, the response to which will generally be "it's a development version, it's expected to have unresolved problems, go use the stable version". There is a published guide explaining how to upgrade a 1.2 site to 1.3. When 2.0 is released, I would expect there to be a guide explaining how to upgrade a site from 1.3 to 2.0. I would not, however, expect there to be a guide on how to upgrade from 1.2 directly to 2.0; users would be expected to have already upgraded to 1.3. Therefore it makes a great amount of sense to upgrade your 1.2 site to 1.3 now, verify that you've followed the existing upgrade guide properly and that everything works, and publish your site with 1.3, and then, whenever 2.0 does come out, you can tackle that upgrade then. -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
