Should you be worried about the upgrade from 1.9.x to 2.0? The short answer is no. If you did not modify core, utilized as much within core as possible, and follow this guide to cover any grey area that you may be effected by — you should find your Pods 1.9.x to 2.0 upgrade easy …
Repeating fields is going to be awesome – but we need to decide how to store this data. We have a few options: For each ‘repeatable’ field, have a separate table devoted to it that has these fields: id, related_id, and value (stored as the field’s type, like date, number, etc..) For each ‘repeatable’ field’s …
We’re kicking around names for the new components that would be enabled or disabled by default but could be turned on/off depending on user preference. Here’s the list so far — If you have any ideas you’d like included here, or you like one of these, please +1 it and let us know!: Components (6 …

Been destroying Pods and PodsAPI classes for the past week, lots of progress! Finished sweeping mysql_* and DB structure changes across Pods and PodsAPI classes, all that’s left is the publicForm reworking out of the two. Next is Admin UI / Form UI work. Well, back to the salt mines — ta ta!
