Yes it does seem to work but I don't even know
what is the proper way to
upgrade a mediawiki 1.5 installation.
The process should be something like:
1/ back up your data
2/ lock database / shutdown site
3/ put new files from the tar.gz
4/ run ./maintenance/update.php (that will deal with database changes)
5/ unlock database / restart site
A followup question from the audience: What's the best, "approved" way
to lock the database? I can think of several ways I could go about it,
but for all I know, a simple button to click somewhere might have been
provided.
