wait to update or install 1.1?

I have been nurturing a simple install while a community I am starting is slowly coming online.

It seems I have a hard date about 1 week from now that people will start showing up and I can’t just re-install every time I break something anymore.

my question:

1.1 seems to be a pretty big departure form 1.0 – should I just install the beta now and run with it or upgrade after its released?

Since it is such a departure from 1.0 (mostly forums) will be able to upgrade without losing data from 1.0 to 1.1?

Thanks

Matt

p.s. I also have been getting a ton of “server not found” on this site lately. Should I be worried?

I had to create a second account to post this….

If you’re keeping the same theme setup then upgrading from 1.0 to 1.1 is easy enough. If you plan on having a custom theme I’d say at least get familiar with 1.1 right away so you’re comfortable developing for it sooner than later.

Thanks John. If going from 1.0 to 1.1 is not too difficult I guess I will wait.

as an aside, any idea why I can’t post in the forum under my actual account?

Matt: make sure you log out, and then log in with this form. See if you can then post.

Hey Andy, that worked. I was able to post. I still got a 404 on the first pass, though.

should I head to that link when I login?

thanks

Matt
