I pleasantly discovered that when I did an update from 10.2.  I decided
when I had 9.3, and upgraded to 10.2, to add some disks and install on a
fresh root.  This time, I installed 10.3 cleanly on the old and
reformatted former 9.3 / (home is on its own).  It obviously scanned the
10.2 root and copied over all the users, saving me a ton of work.  Next
time I will just upgrade 11 over the 10.2 root.  I remember how long it
took to re-enter everyone when I upgraded to 8.0.  Well done!
