Hiya

 

Looks like elgg 1.0 is out....

(elgg 0.9 is the platform that the current Jammunity site is built on)

There seems to be a post on upgrading in the elgg forum:

It seems to me that there are plusses and minusses to changing platforms (apparently 1.0 is hugely different):

One plus is that we'd be kinda future proofing with new features. Also, if we decide to switch late (ie. after we are fully up and running with members) we MAY lose all old posts. 

The minus is that the new platform probably does not support all the old plugins. So we would have to make do with all the basic features (which, in the first instance, seem pretty good) until new/upgraded plugins become available. Also, since its new, we dont know all the bugs that may be in there.....

Of course, another minus is the workload involved in the upgrade Tongue out 

Any thoughts?
