I already put in my time to upgrade the 3 year old client to the latest version of Bitcoin and creating the current website.
is the port finished? ie. should people be updating already? looking at the source:

* bip16 and bip30 activate 2014-01-1. this is already past. people running the new client could get forked. p2sh transactions are currently unsafe until the majority upgrade. actually the source comment is wrong. it says '2014-01-01' but it is actually 2014-01-02 according to epoch.
* a patch will need to be made for old clients to update lock limits for bdb. without this old clients can be forked if transactions exceeding certain limits happens on new client. this was cause of the dogecoin fork and the bitcoin fork previously.

other than that i assume all is fine?
