Re: Migrating older 1.4 project to 1.9

As stated above, take small steps.  Take the time to read the release notes for each minor version.  Most of the minor versions are bug fixes and you can scan through them.
 
Pay close attention to migrations if using South.  In Django 1.7 South is not used.  Django incorporated migrations into the core code.  In Django 1.6 you will add code to settings.py to prepare you for Django 1.7 migration format (if using south).  Each third-party installed app will also have specific requirements if upgrading from South.  Read the docs for each installed app.

I am in the process of updating four Django 1.5.5 / DjangoCMS 2.4.3 applications.  It is a painful time consuming process. I am documenting what I am doing to publish for others but it seams each application has its own upgrade propblems.
