I guess what i'm most concerned about is working on a living project far 
into the future and at the same time keeping the enviroment i'm building it 
in up to date. I think i'll keep my current version (well, i have 2.1.1; is 
there a way to upgrade without having to reinstall every module i've ever 
installed?) until I understand what the new goodies are, but... I think 
i'll go to sleep and try to figure out what my real question is =)
