Newbie Upgrade Question From v0.9.0

[SimonQ]

I am currently on 0.9.0 and was wondering if it is possible to currently skip the 0.9.1 version and wait till 0.9.2 (or even later updates) to come out and update straight to that instead?

I have occasionally had the forum break on me before and do not want to deal with the stress at the moment (enough already from exams).

Thanks!

@SimonQ I think you can skip and go to any version in v0.9.x branch. Don't think you can do that if you want to go from v0.9.0 to v1.0.0

Correct. No need to update unless you want to (though if an update contains a security fix, it is recommended).

v0.9.1 does not contain security fixes.

I think

[...] and NodeBB will warn you when attempting to upgrade that you are not upgrading cleanly.

is the best fact regarding this from within the docs

Excelent

Thanks guys, I see the update to v0.9.2 is up, hopefully I can update by next week (before 0.9.3 comes out!!)

Let me backtrack on this one... literally two minutes after writing that reply, we got a security report, and pushed out a fix, so... v0.9.2 contains a security fix

I have updated to 0.9.2 now and it seams fine
