Thanks, Chris. This process is understandable, but … well … not really viable for anything other than recent backups, and for people who keep upgrading their run-time installation on a very frequent basis.. (Obviously I’m not saying anything new here, I’m sure.)
Are there any plans to bundle all past upgrader scripts with a given release of ownCloud and then sequentially invoke all needed upgraders? For an example, see MediaWiki. They simply concatenate all the schema updaters and run them in sequence.
