Rough notes for managing the Conference System upgrade for the FOSS4G 2008 web site.
OCS v2.0.0.1 was the first version of OCS used for the conference web site at http://conference.osgeo.org. The upgrade will bring the site up to OCS v2.1 which addresses many of the outstanding issues note on the FOSS4G2008 Committee Issues page.
Upgrade will happen in three stages: set up a skeleton copy under the new version of the software, copy the final database over, then switch the web server settings to point conference.osgeo.org to the new site.
