Hi Abhishek,
It should upgrade without any major problems.
You'll absolutely want to test an upgrade on a copy of your system, using a
copy of your database and site directory.
You'll need to modify the conf/settings_local.py in the site directory to
change the database you're using, for the test.
Once you have a copy, you can run:
$ easy_install -U ReviewBoard
$ rb-site upgrade /path/to/site
Barring any odd issues (which may happen from an older install, but usually
does not), your upgrade should proceed without problems. Once complete, you
should be able to restart Apache and log into the system, verifying that
your install works.
We do offer support contracts, and as part of those, we can assist in
upgrading your system if any problems come up. I can provide further
information on what we offer there, if you're interested.
