READ THIS FILE, IF YOU ARE UPGRADING FROM 0.9 TO 1.0.0

In any case: BACKUP your existing note database!!!!!!!

"note -D"
This works with both the mysql and the binary version.
You need to reedit your configfile, since there are now
some new required options! The most important: $dbdriver.
You need to reedit your configfile. Please refer to the
sample config in config/noterc.
If you used previously a binary db without a config, then
you will get trouble with your existing notedb because the
default values for field sizes has been changed (it was too
small)! You have two choices:
1. make a database dump ("note -D") with your old note-version.
2. remove your existing .notedb (and/or back it up!)
3. install the new note version
4. import the previously created dump ("note -I note.dump.23112")
or
Edit the config to reflect your field size settings. Set the
fields MAX_TIME=64 and MAX_NOTE=1024 (which was the default of
previous versions of note).
======================================================
This version of note has now encryption support build in.
If you decide to use it, you need to re-initialize your
note database. That's why, because your current database
is unencrypted and *if* you want to secure your data, you
need to secure everything. That means, your existing data
must be encrypted before you can use this new capability!
Follow this steps:
o backup existing db:
$ note -D
o backup the db:
$ cp .notedb .notedb.save
or (for mysql users!):
$ cp -r /usr/local/mysql/data/notedb ~/notedb.mysql.save
o go into note and delete all existing notes:
$ note -d 1-20 (or however)
o now upgrade your note installation:
$ perl Makefile.PL; make install
o re-configure note. Turn $USE_CRYPT on by setting it
to "YES".
o re-initialize your database:
$ note -I note.dump.2323 (or whatever)
note will prompt you for a passphrase. It will be used
by Crypt::CBC for encrypting your data.
From now on, your data is encrypted. You will need the passphrase
you set above for decrypting it! So - don't forget it!
======================================================
AGAIN: YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! DO NOT UPGRADE WITHOUT MADE A
BACKUP OF YOUR DATABASE! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU
