I would like to upgrade an older installation, Gallery-2.0.2, to something recent. Currently, I have just the data (sql databases and g2data), not the application files. First thing's first: Gallery can't be directly upgrade from 2.0.2 to either of those, so I should re-install Gallery-2.0.2 properly. The link for that version is availabe (http://codex.gallery2.org/index.php?title=Gallery2:Download&oldid=8035), but the target no longer exists -- 2.0.2 (2.0.4, really) is no longer available. The link redirects to http://sourceforge.net/projects/gallery/files/gallery2/ , where 2.2.6 is the oldest available version.

What is the recommended upgrade path?

Back everything up and then try to upgrade to v2.2.6 by overwriting the files with v2.2.6.

If that goes well, do the same thing to go to v2.3.1 from v2.2.6
