So far we tried to keep GeoServer always upgradable, we have people jumping
straight from 1.7 to 2.2,
it would be nice to allow this in the future.
Granted, it's not like we test upgrade from such distant versions, in fact,
we only test upgrades from
previous versions, but we have kept things simple and consistent enough
that it just happens to work:
it would be really nice to have things keep on progressing this way
Cheers
