If the inno installer offers to convert databases, then you may be correct. However, for my testing I didn't use the inno installer, so suddenly and without warning 'lost' the training info. I wonder if people who roll spambayes out to many seats all use our Inno setup to achieve that - if not, they too will lose. More generally though, even if I was prompted about converting the databases, if I answered 'No' I would expect my old existing database would still work as before. An upgrade that *forces* pain on you (answer yes, wait while 1x20MB and 1x10MB pickles are migrated, or answer 'no' and take the pain of retraining from scratch) doesn't sound friendly. A better approach may be that before *creating* a database in the new format, check to see if the old format exists and continue to use it. And more generally still, the ZODB that I have installed is built from Zope3 from SVN - from a branch, but not (necessarily) corresponding to an official release. This didn't seem prudent (but OTOH, probably would not itself have caused me to exclude it without the above :) Cheers, Mark _______________________________________________ spambayes-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/spambayes-dev
