I think we need to test a new version in real before we release it.  
This will allow reducing the bugs we find.

I propose we add the strategy of deploying a candidate release on  
xwiki.org first and play with it for 1 or 2 days before we release  
new version.

This should allow us to validate that existing installs can be  
migrated to the new version as this is something we are currently not  
checking (since our build creates a new version from scratch).

WDYT?

If you're ok I'll add it to the release notes and we'll need to get  
Raffaello's help for this. Maybe we could stage xwiki.org and  
xwiki.com on a separate machine by copying the existing DBs to try  
them out rather than using the real system?

Thanks
