Hi, I assume that Semantic MediaWiki 1.8 will include the new storerewrite and while I'm looking forward to this enhancement, I'm a bit worried that it will have some larger impact on wikis that have a huge amount of data stored with the current Store2 method.
Instead of having to switch to the new Storerewrite without any opt-out/in option, I would rather see a possibility to switch from Store2 to Store3 (that includes the new methods of storerewrite) by using $smwgDefaultStore [1] which would ease the general switch/testing without having to fear that the SMW 1.8 backend will be somehow disrupted. If "Store3" has been sufficiently tested in the field, it could be used as default but for SMW release 1.8/1.9 we should give people a chance to ensure that their environment can be upgraded with the least possible disturbances.
