Hi all,
In preparing for the 1.5 release, I'm going over a few things that need to
be absolutely fine when we release 1.5. Today I was checking:
- Installation docs (to be done)
- Correct operation of setup.pl (was worked on last week, doing fine on my
system now)
- Correct operation of login.pl (we're running tests on this one all the
time; doing fine on my system)
One topic that drew my attention today -- largely due to Arne Hanssen's
issues with 1.4 -- is *data migration*. We have a largish number of scripts
in sql/upgrade/. Some seem to be for upgrades to 1.3, some to 1.4, some to
be used manually, others to be used by automated migration for setup.pl.
*However, none of them seem to target 1.5; neither does Upgrade_Tests.pm
include 1.5.*
Now, I know that we have very few schema changes between 1.4 and 1.5 and we
have the sql/changes/ directory, but I'm not clear on how to tie this all
together at this point.
Should we simply remove the 1.2->1.3, 1.2->1.4 scripts? What about the
1.3->1.4 scripts? From my understanding, the sql/changes/ directory picks
up from 1.4.0; do we require all 1.2 and 1.3 users upgrade by going through
1.4 first? I mean, I understand we don't provide community support for 1.2
and 1.3 anymore; does that mean no migrations either?
These questions are for my own understanding as well as for documentation
to go with the 1.5 release.
