 * Just wanted to ask if there are some specific steps to do during upgrade to new
   WordPress version.
 * W3 total cache have to be disabled before or it can stay enabled?
 * Some other things to make sure of before upgrade is started?

 * Actually the upgrade was made available in error. A single line in readme.txt
   was incorrect. Only the development version is updated: [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/download/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/download/)–
   upgrading always requires deactivation and reactivation.

 * And I have upgraded! Now, should I wait for actual upgrade or downgrade? I am
   having problems with CDN. To be exact, all the cloudfront settings are there 
   but plugin is displaying a big banner at top of admin pages saying: **Content
   Delivery Network Error: The “Access key”, “Secret key”, “Bucket” and “Replace
   default hostname with” fields must be populated.**
    And strangely, CDN is working
   for some images(i.e. plugin is updating urls for only some images!) and others
   are being served from own server. Isn’t plugin supposed to rewrite all URLs?

 * What version to run is up to you. There are bugs with S3/Cloudfront with v0.8.5.2
   that are hopefully resolved in v0.9.

 * Just noticed that it works fine! Only the error is displayed and everything else
   works great!

 * Please upgrade to the latest development version and confirm if the error is 
   gone.

 * Yes, every value is set. In fact, plugin is working great with CDN and images
   are being served from CDN, it’s just the message that remains there!

 * Seems there’s an issue saving your configuration settings. If you want you can
   submit a bug submission form.

 * Recent upgrade to final 0.9.0 fixed everything!
