The bad news: You will need to test to be sure it works, and there may be 
some work required for the upgrade.
The good news: Most likely, you will only need to make minor changes and 
will be happy with the features offered by the newer versions.

The biggest change you will have to deal with were introduced around 
version 2.6 -- "For pre 2.6 applications to work with web2py >=2.6, you 
must copy static/js/web2py.js, controllers/appadmin.py, and 
views/appadmin.html from the welcome app to your own apps (all of them)."
