Upgrading from D6 to D7 can be difficult. The main reason is the use of 3rd party modules:
* Some of the 3rd party modules for D6 got included in D7 core, but with variations or only partial functionality... so data doesn't necessarily transfer easily. * Similarly, some of the in-core D6 functionality got migrated to these new modules in D7 but the upgrade path isn't clean and bug-free. * Some common D6 3rd party modules and themes don't yet have a stable D7 release. I spent a whole day a couple of weeks ago trying to upgrade a complicated site from D6 to D7 but I had to roll back when I couldn't find a way forward. More research and thinking means that I think I know a way past the thing that blocked me... but that doesn't mean I'll be able to get all the way through next time. I might still need to roll back. So it would be nice to have D6 around. :-) Looking at Drupal bugs suggests that I'm not the only one in this situation... :-( peace & happiness, martin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
