I just recently went through an upgrade from 1.3 to 2.2 (any reason why you want the intermediate branch of 2.0?). I started out simply by compiling and installing 2.2, then trying to start it using my existing 1.3 config file and watching what happened. It looks to me that about 95% of the directives and options are compatible so most simple configs will probably just work. Sometimes you'll get a few syntax errors because a directive has been deprecated so you have to look at that and see how to achieve the same effect in the new syntax. For me, the two biggest changes I noticed were: - cache directives have changed a bit: 2.2 now uses an extra daemon (htcacheclear) to clear the cache and has dropped this functionality (and its directives) from the core code. - "Port" is gone: this forces you to use "Listen" (which you should've been doing anyway :-). This has a subtle effect with self-referential URLs and UseCanonicalName. - Couple of options were different... It wasn't too much of a big deal and within about a day 2.2 was running fine.
