=== Examples of what might be classified as a major change===
*Additions to fields in log files (whilst older lines can continue to be read, you might want to consider [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=18096 amending your standard data log] by populating the additional derivatives for older lines)
*Schema changes for database tables (if you don't use the standard tables, this might be irrelevant to you), the standard insert operations by MX can cope with extra columns in a table, but will fail if any column they try to update is missing
*Additions, changes, or removals, in configuration file (in general MX will ignore unrecognised parameters, but it does need correct values for those attributes it does recognise), see release announcements to discover if new lines in configuration file need you to add them manually or you need to use the admin interface to select the right setting for you
*New pages in Administrative Interface (additional pages require menu on every other page to be amended)
*Changes to existing pages in admin interface that involve changes to associated files (it is vital that all associated files are from same build)
*Catering for new weather station sensors, or new ways of communicating (this might not seem relevant to you)
*Any interface functionality changes (it may look the same, but what it does has changed)
*Additions to files being generated for web server (i.e. changes to template files, or additions to ''web'' or ''webfiles'' folders), even if you use your own versions of such files you may want to check the revisions
