that's not an upgrade path but a clean install. This is a _very alarming_ piece of news if this indeed is the case. :( If there is no upgrade path we can't ever go to production and we're stuck on just small pilots with our MH setups.

In Wordpress, Moodle and many other OS products the upgrades are nowadays pretty frequent. I'm not saying that frequent updates are nice, but the ability to upgrade is. For example both Moodle and Wordpress have had several XSS vulnerabilities lately and if we were unable to upgrade our Moodle / Wordpress installations, we would be running systems filled with security holes. That's why I think the upgrade path ability is an extremely critical part of every production system: running a production environtment is not possible if there is no upgrade path. :/

I assume majority of us want to take MH into production sooner or later, right? At least I really would love to do it. Does anyone know more about the upgrade path considering Matterhorn's roadmap?

And finally, the 'upgrade path' from 1.2 to 1.3 - can we expect any docs or a

I'm not 100% sure here, but as far as I know the upgrade path between
the two releases is to delete everything, drop the DB, and start over.
