I see the warning to Windows users of Shapely:

Warning: Windows users: do not under any circumstances use pip (or 
easy_install) to uninstall Shapely versions < 1.2.17. Due to the way Shapely 
used to install its GEOS DLL and a distribute or setuptools bug, your Python 
installation may be broken by an uninstall command. Shapely 1.2.17 will 
uninstall safely.

I'd like to update to Shapely 1.3.  I'm currently using Shapely 1.2.14 (on 
Windows 7 with Python 2.6 32-bit).

Do I simply use:

pip install shapely --upgrade

to safely avoid the problem mentioned in the Warning?

If not: what is my migration path to Shapely 1.3?

I looked for this info in the Shapely docs but didn't see it; apologies if I 
overlooked it.
