I would like to merge any updates committed to the stable branch to this installation. Unfortunately, I've only been on this list now for a few days so I'm not aware of any special instructions required to perform the upgrade. Is there an archive of issues requiring special attention anywhere? Or is it safe to just go ahead and perform the upgrade using cvsup?
