Martin, Unfortunately, migrating from 0.7 to 0.9.1 is not something that we've documented. Do you know how much customization you've done to the code? If it is a fairly basic shop, I think the easiest approach would be to write some scripts to migrate the data from your old shop to your new one.
You'll probably have to tweak the templates along the way but hopefully that won't be too much work. The good news is that Satchmo has stabilized a lot and that migrations are much simpler now since we use South. FWIW, I'm very proud that the FSF is using Satchmo so if we can help with the process, please use the group as a resource. -Chris On Tue, Jun 21, 2011 at 11:48 AM, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > At the FSF, we are currently using Satchmo 0.7 with Django 0.97 for > our > shop.fsf.org which we would like to upgrade to Satchmo 0.9.1. > > For this purpose, we have set up a development machine where we > installed > Django 1.3 and Satchmo 0.9.1.
