yes. the problem is that we didn't have a clearly defined upgrade process before 1.3, so by far the best solution is just to deploy each release individually until you get to 1.3.

from 1.3 onward you should be able to skip releases.

With the migration scripts included in 2.0, you should be able to go from 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 or 1.3 to 2.0 by running the migration scripts alone -- no restarting of Roller is required. I tested that before releasing 2.0 and actually changed some of the old scripts to make it possible.
