</div>The easiest and best way is to use the Backup [1] and Restore [2]<br>
activities. They're still a bit rough on the UI side (help welcome!),<br>
but have been carefully tested. You can exchange backups (i.e. up- and<br>
downgrade) between any version of sugar-datastore, including the ones<br>
with version support. Only older entries are overwritten, so it's safe<br>
to restore an older backup over an already-filled Journal. You could<br>
even distribute content that way.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Ahhh, now that looks like a comfortable option, not sure how I could have missed it.</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the heads-up Sascha,</div><div>
