Perhaps.

As far as I can remember, no DB changes.  But INSTALL changed since 0.6, 
LocalSettings.php is no longer needed.

The initial conversion to Subversion is fiddly, it's probably easiest to 
check out a  revision in a new directory, then copy your local changes 
into it, then archive your working extensions/SemanticMediaWiki 
directory and replace it with the new directory.

Markus committed template support in revision 19886.

ontoworld.org is often running post-release code.  Right now 
Special:Version says it's at "0.6b", and this string in 
SMW_GlobalFunctions.php was bumped in revision 19884; I think that's why 
ontoworld.org doesn't have the format="template" support.

Without a test suite and performance benchmarks there's always some risk 
to upgrading.  "Your Mileage May Vary" :-)
