As release gets nearer we will need a Migration page on UserBase.  Being a 
belt-and-braces (and piece of string to make sure) type, I wouldn't want to do 
something as big and important as this without adequate backups, so even if it 
should never be needed, I'm in favour of recommending full backup of data and 
configuration.

I'm saving this thread and Kevin's blog that appeared on Sunday, to help with 
the process.
