A somewhat related question I hope... If I want to move from a server that currently is running 1.4.2 to a new server would the best approach be to install a clean 1.5.1 on the new server and then move the data over? If so, are there instructions for how to migrate content from a 1.4.2 instance to a 1.5.1 instance?

Sue, You should be able to upgrade from 1.4.2 to 1.5.1, assuming you make sure to perform all of the 1.5.x database upgrades. So, even though you are upgrading to 1.5.1, make sure to *first* perform the upgrade steps laid out for 1.4.2->1.5.0. For DSpace, we make it a point that minor upgrades (1.5.0->1.5.1) only involve code changes (i.e. the database structure will never change during these upgrades). Major upgrades (e.g. 1.4.2->1.5.0) will often involve changes to the database structure. Hope that helps, - Tim Thornton, Susan M.
