Thanks for the heads up. it occurred to me as I looked through the  
instructions --which I will need to rewrite in a big and ugly way--  
yeah, i will have to walk through each version of drupal until the  
latest. it's insane if you ask me.

Why i am not upgrading using civicspace? To use CiviCRM I had to set  
up a separate site --it slowed down and crashed CultureKitchen  
constantly. I have only been able to run massmailer once, in a  
textdrive development site i had with one of the earliest versions of  
CivicSpace. Since then, nothing I do makes it work. So right there,  
the two major reasons for me to run CivicSpace are completely gone.

Last but not least, I have to pare down my sites. They suck big  
chunks of bandwidth and I think the distro is part of the problem.  
I'd rather set up the other CSL modules by hand and hope for the best.

If you have a better idea as to how to go about this, please shoot  
them my way.

Cheers,
