That pointed me both to your article, as well as to two quite interesting and mature looking frameworks which might be worth mentioning here: http://www.liquibase.org/ http://scriptella.javaforge.com/ - René Hey Patrick,

LiquiBase is one hopeful take at a standardized upgrade/migration tool. Great article, thanks!

Would you be open to getting involved in something like that? I have a start on it, which is where my upgrade framework came from in the first place. Marc,

Spring based would be perfect but i am open to other alternatives. This should be an overseeable thingy to work on. Most of the time will be spent to spec out the notation of SQL scripts and java helper programs for pushing new data into new fields... We could get a project place and discuss the architecture there. Marc How about starting something as stated on Dons blog? Spring based would be perfect but i am open to other alternatives.
