+ <sect1>From versions 0.65 to 0.65++
+ <p> Versions of phpSlash greater than 0.6.2 <bf>will not</bf> support
+ upgrading a 0.5.x install.  You will manually need to upgrade to 0.6.2 and
+ then upgrade from that point on.  The reason for this is that the
+ database schema in 0.6x radically changed from 0.5x and supporting that
+ particular upgrade path is just not feasible or viable given the number of
+ developers we have.
+ 
+ <sect2>Before you begin
+ 
+ <P>
+ <itemize>
+   <item> Install phpslash 0.65++ in a new directory and set all the path  
+   related variables as documented in the INSTALL file.  Oh yeah, copy over
+   any special logos or topic images that you will need from the old slash
+   directory to the new one.
+ </itemize>
+  
+ <sect2>The Upgrade
+ 
+ <p>
+ <enum>
+   <item> It would be a good idea to backup the database at this point: 
+ 
+   <tscreen><code>
+        mysqldump slash > slash-backup.sql
+   </code></tscreen>
+ 
+   <item> Since you're upgrading from 0.65 we need to make some changes to the
+   DB so run the tables/0.70/65_to_70.sql file:
+ 
+   <tscreen><code>
+        mysql slash < 65_to_70.sql
+   </code></tscreen>
+ 
+   <p>
+   <bf>STOP IF YOU GOT ANY ERRORS, YOU NEED TO FIX THEM BEFORE YOU
+   CONTINUE.  ASK THE MAILING LIST QUESTIONS IF YOU NEED HELP!!!</bf>
+ 
+   <item>Customize templates.  Many templates changed since the release of 0.65, 
+   so simply copying the templates from the 0.65 installation will not work.
+   Instead of modifying the files in the "default" directory, it may be better to
+   copy the entire contents of the "default" directory to another directory.  
+   Then customize these files.
+   The default template/skin location is specified in config.php3 on this line:
+   
+   <tscreen><code>
+        $_PSL[defaultskin] = "default";
+   </code></tscreen>
+ 
+   <item>This is a list of template files that are new or changed since the 
+   release of 0.65:
+ 
+   <tscreen><code>
+        navbarBlock.tpl
+   </code></tscreen>
+ 
+ 
+ </enum>
+ 
+ That should be it.  If you get any errors, then send an email to the list
+ and we'll try to help out as best as we can.

    <tag/HTML/  Just put some HTML in the "DATA" field and that's pretty
      much it.
+   <tag/NavBar/  Creates a block containing the navbar links.  These are valid 
+     options:
+     <itemize>
+        <item> menu_ary = alternate menu_ary specified in config.
+        <item> tpl = alternate template ( no .tpl).
+     </itemize>
    <tag/Poll/  Renders the current poll, it's probably a good idea to put
      the expire length kinda high in this one because there's no point in
