I havent tried it but you could try it for me:P

get the serial number out of the administrator, just so you have a copy,
then update the serial number to be "Developer".  This is what seems to be
in there if you install developer version.  From here you should have access
to everything, including the archiving and deployment area.

Archive your settings, and then uninstall.

Install your new version, but as developer edition aswell.  deploy your
archive with all your previous settings like datasources and stuff, and then
enter your new key

Saves you setting everything up again from scratch

I would DEFINITELY uninstall 6.1 first. Things are much cleaner this way..

Again, I would reconfigure everything to keep things clean. Is this
going to become a production server? You can spend quite a bit of time
tuning it.
