[rt-users] Upgrading from RT 3.6.1 to 3.6.4

[Samuel P. Howard]

Wow, I'm surprise there weren't any database updates from 3.4 to 3.6 ... 
you'd think that'd be almost a guarantee ... hrmmm

I should pull down the source tarballs for 3.6.1 -> 3.6.4 and take a 
look I guess ... maybe it will be that easy!  (I'll point to a *COPY* of 
my production database, of course, tho)

Thanks!
