Hi, the recent Drupal Administration survey indicated that upgrading  
Drupal was the 5th hardest administration task.

Several months ago we conducted a series of interviews with  
CivicSpace Administrators to identify all the tasks involved in  
upgrading CivicSpace.  We prioritized these tasks and provided an  
upgrade workflow.  We made the decision to focus on people using GUI  
FTP clients and Web based database clients.  Alternately, we provided  
command line instructions in parallel path.

I want to move these instructions to Drupal.org to help improve the  
administration experience but would like a review before I do so.

Here are the instructions with alternate paths: http:// 
civicspacelabs.org/home/upgrade

If you previously offered to take screenshots of common GUI FTP and  
DB clients please contact me.

Cheers,
Kieran
