[cw-discuss] Go back to 5.03?

[Jeremy White]

Hi John,

Um, before you give up on 6, I'd ask that you file a ticket with
us and see if we can get you joy.

But to answer your question, yes, you can uninstall 6, and
reinstall 5.  You can't 'downgrade' a bottle from 6 to 5,
so you will have to completely reinstall.

It's also possible to have 5 and 6 run side by side,
although that can be rather tricky, and I'm not sure
I'd recommend it.

Cheers,

Jeremy
