Hi Cecilia

The upgrade is really not all that scary, and you can try it before
finally migrating.  You can just leave the PO files where they are (with
backups, of course), and remember that you can run Pootle without
installing, so you can easily just change your web server configuration
to point to the new Python files (of course, you can still install over
the old version if you want to).

I made some notes about upgrading which I hope will be useful:
http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/upgrade

As mentioned in the release notes, suggestions will be migrated
automatically.  The statistics are stored in the main Pootle database
with Pootle 2.1, and all the necessary changes will happen automatically
on the first request.  You might want to run the "refresh_stats" command
once the upgrade is finished:
http://translate.sourceforge.net/wiki/pootle/commands
This will ensure that all statistics are pre-calculated and search
indices (if you use them) are up-to-date.  Otherwise they are calculated
on demand.

The server description is stored in the database and should work fine as
it did in Pootle 2.0  If you make customisations to Pootle code, it is
hard to say what the best thing is to do, but the diff from 2.0.3 might
be the best way to see what you did and see if it applies well. Changes
to the base template will probably apply easily again to Pootle 2.1
without major hassle.  As you can see from existing installations of
Pootle 2.1, the basic look and layout is still largely the same.  The
new functionality on the translate page obviously meant massive changes
in the relevant templates and styling.

I hope that helps.

Keep well
Friedel
