I had looked at this a while ago. My strategy looked to be to create a moin15, moin16 etc that would replace the older versions (moin-1.5 etc) since upgrades from 1.5 to 1.8 were uhm painful (I know I did it a couple of times).
This sounds like a good idea, but it would mean more work for us (which isn't a reason to dismiss it, but it might take considerably more time...)
Were you planning on backporting security patches for 1.5 or just releasing the current package as moin15?
Note: To me personally, if we aren't backporting fixes to moin15 I'd rather see it dropped and just go ahead and document all the pain we can for moving to moin-1.8. Others may differ (and there may be valid cases "I'm using moin on an intranet" and the like)... It's choosing between two bad situations.
