Re: Product Roadmap question and request for recommendation

OK, well just to make sure I have the latest and greatest information on the proposed in-place upgrade process.

If we go from 8.1 to 8.3.6 now using dump/restore we will need to do another dump/restore to get to 8.4, correct?
And from 8.4 on we will be able to do in-place upgrades?
The idea of being able to do an in-place upgrade from an 8.3 release is off the table?

Thanks again,

Keaton

That's out of date --- there is absolutely zero chance of 8.4 being
released in March. This summer, perhaps.
