Would be nice if Akismet checked the WordPress version number and notified the user so that hacks like me didn’t spend too much time trying to figure things out. 🙂
Upgrading from 1.5 to 1.5.2, do these instructions apply (it feels like most of these instructions apply to 1.5x –> 2.x upgrades):

In particular 1) do I need to delete all of my old wordpress scripts or can I just upload all of the new files atop the old ones? 2) is there an upgrade script to be run when upgrading from 1.5 to 1.5.2? 3) are there plugins that worked under 1.5 that don’t work under 1.5.2?
