I've been running a Manila server for years without putting too much thought into it. Other than the occasional upgrade, compacting root files, and deleting old backups, the server has been running great (with keepFrontierRunning).

But, over the years I think my .root files have gathered a lot of cruft from plugins and add-ins that I no longer use.

I have about 30 low volume sites on the server. Is it worth the effort to move those sites to a new fresh copy of Manila and go through the configuration troubles of getting a new copy running or should I just leave the cruft there and keep on serving?

If a new fresh copy is the way to go, what is the process for moving my existing sites over?

This is a Manila site... http://manila.userland.com/.
