Edit:
Never mind, I should remember to check the Release notes.

So, before I get the new version and screw things up trying to get it to work nicely... how exactly do you go about transferring a game from a previous compatible version, to the latest?

Extract the new DF in a nice clean pristine folder.  Then go to your old folder, and move data/save over to the new DF's data folder.  You'll have to be more careful with things like init.txt/interface.txt since new tags get added on occasion.  The new tags are in file_changes.txt.

edit:  You can also move individual region folders from data/save over to the new DF's data/save if you like (you'll have to create a data/save in the new DF's folder if you haven't run it yet).
