   I understand from another thread that 3.1 will no longer call the activation hook when a plugin is upgraded.

   was wondering if someone could point me to a good example of calling upgrade code outside of the activation, so it is called the minimal number of times.

   My plugin has an internal version number I can use to check against, I'm just not sure of the best place to put the check against the version number and the call to the upgrade function

   I ended up putting the check in the admin_init hook.

   function rootsPersonaUpgrade() {
     $currentVersion = get_option('rootsPersonaVersion');
     if(!isset($currentVersion) || empty($currentVersion)
   	|| $this->rootsPersonaVersion != $currentVersion) {
   	$installer = new rootsPersonaInstaller();
   	$installer->rootsPersonaUpgrade(ABSPATH . $this->plugin_dir,
   					$this->rootsPersonaVersion);
     }
   }

   then

   add_action( 'admin_init', array($rootsPersonaplugin, 'rootsPersonaUpgrade' ));
