You're making my point precisely about why I don't upgrade every time a new release comes out. Yes..... I'm someone who 'blindly copies' a config file, bad idea or not.... I've got a major environment that works and is in critical business path production for my client. I guess I'm supposed to take a blank piece of paper or some canned template and re-create my entire configuration from scratch each time I upgrade the server code. But I'm going to have a tough time explaining the down time to my client while I debug and try to get the brand new config file back up and running and researching, for example, why <logger> went away in the new release and what I need to do to replace the functionality that worked in an earlier release. This process may work for some users. But it would put me out of business. This is why I'm on 7.0.27 and, sadly, will probably not be moving soon. Are there any config file migration tools available?
