- Database migration:

Since the 0.7 release we're able to migrate the data generated in previous releases to the new ones.

• You'll have to copy the data.sqlite file from the main project folder to the new release project folder.
• If you've uploaded any Multimedia files to your previous setup, make sure to copy them over to the new project folder manually from and to FQM/static/multimedia/ folder.

Make sure the migration steps are performed prior to running the new release of the system.
