Let Lenya 1.2 users upgrade to Lenya 1.3 since complete backwards-compatibility was a goal. Lenya 1.3 should be usable in a few weeks. The high-level feature list reads just like 2.0's What's New. The largest strategic difference is no Java in Modules, but that cannot be a problem since 1.2 did not have that feature. Just copy Lenya 1.2 Publications to the pubs directory. The implementations is very different from Lenya 2, but a normal user will not care. The new features become available after a simple conversion to the new datastore. (Jorn will love that Areas have been removed.) This frees Lenya 2 development to focus on new features for new installations. solprovider --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
