Something to consider with any tool that requires specialized personnel is
that if you don't keep up to date then your labor pool shrinks right along
with your ability to get community support.  I learned this first hand when
the Apache MyFaces version I was using slowly set into the sunset and every
forum answer I read just said "why don't you just upgrade to version x.x?"
instead of somebody telling me how to address my issue with the version I
was on.

The painful part about upgrading is that things break from version to
version.  Makes one appreciate RPG a little more.
