I am not 100 % sure I understand step 2. Is the following
correct.

Suppose my wiki (vs 1.9) is in 
/var/www/wiki



    -  I rename it to say wiki-1.9

    -  I unpack mediawiki-1.16 in /var/www/ rename it to
       wiki (change user and group),

    -  copy LocalSettings.php  from wiki-1.9 into wiki (and
       also the image and extension directory)

    -  I run maintenance/update.php is using the browser.

Is this correct?

Thanks 

Uwe
