Said differently we handle the runtime upgrades but we let you handle
the content upgrades (since it's impossible for us to do with
confidence and since we want to share the admin burden - remember that
admin for this farm is done by the community).
Thanks

a new site that has
been
created on myxwiki for our collaboration. The statement in the
note
below
is that anyone with space on this hosted farm should upgrade.
The myxwiki.org farm is tracking the latest versions and we update
it
as soon as a release is out. However we can't upgrade the
applications
in it on behalf of its users because it would mean overwriting any
change you'd have made to existing pages that are in the default
XAR.
Thus we let you do some part of admin work and it's your charge to
upgrade your wiki. -> applications like "blog". Since
our site is new, we don't have
any
applications and there are no upgrade implications.
