[support] question about upgrading

[Walt Daniels]

When we went from 5 to 6 our zen theme needed very little, just replaced it
with the 6 version and added in a few special theming tricks in the
template.php file, fixed with some api changes. A few of the tpl files also
had some special code that needed fixing.
