I fixed up 1.5 branch to make GeoServer load old data directories from both 1.3 and 1.4. I also changed it to successfully start up if there are no datasets defined (dataStores, FeatureTypes, coverages, namespaces, styles). If this isn't desirable please let me know and I will change it.
I will apply the change to trunk next week once Justin is done.

Way cool Brent 
Just one thing I noticed and don't know if you have fixed. What happens
if you have no namespace defined, and try to define a datastore?
Afaik it was breaking.
Cheers
Andrea
oh then it will probably still break.
What it should really be doing is throwing an appropriate error in the UI. I will see what I can do and if I want to tackle struts today.

That's great.
One thing I'd like for us to do is _never_ use the WEB-INF/ catalog.xml and services.xml in our distributions. I think we should support it, but it shouldn't be an example at all.
So always ship with a data_dir. And if not, like in the war, then we should either just ship it empty (which I think would be fine), or else we should just put the whole data_dir in WEB-INF, with it's normal structure.
Brent, could you also check the data_dir docs. People have been saying they're confusing...
