Hi Gregory, it is really an outstanding new version! And a lot of work you've all done. My question:
I wanted to migrate from older versions ( website, dms, users, - content ) to 4.5.1. (A first project from 4.4.6) What I found, after realizing that is a greater step ;-) , was this page: http://wiki.magnolia-cms.com/display/DEV/Migration+process+of+module+configuration+and+websites I am really not sure whether or not I did found the right page. It seems a little bit complicated. Should I wait? As you, Greg said in your posting: " > we are offering three things " I would understand the cite as a message to wait a while.
