Hi,
We have a general problem when upgrading XWiki which is to not forget to exclude certain files from the import. The manual exclusion is something that generates all sorts of problems especially when done by less experienced users.
These files are:
- preferences - all and admin group - admin user - invitation config file - anotation config file
Either we make a FULL and an UPGRADE XAR or we make a CODE and CONFIG xar (initial install would need both xars to be imported).
I'm more for the solution of one FULL and one UPGRADE xar.

Actually, a better technical solution is 20% implemented. The Package plugin has the notion of document update methods, the possible actions on conflict being "merge", "skip", "overwrite". Unfortunately, this info is not really used anywhere. -- Sergiu Dumitriu http://purl.org/net/sergiu/
