nasty notes:

== 1.4 upgrade procedure ==

* First, lock the wiki with the appropriate lock file
* For each wiki in the group, in /home/wikipedia/common/php-1.4/maintenance, run the appropriate:
*:php update.php ''xxwiki''
* Once the databases have been adjusted, fix the files.
** If it was on the old docroot on NFS:
*** go to /h/w/common/docroot and cp -pr skel to the appropriate subdir
*** link in the uploads dir (is this necessary?) and any other customizations
*** sync-common-all
*** change the appropriate apache .conf file and restart the apaches
** else:
*** link /home/wikipedia/common/php-1.4/skins into the appropriate docroot.
*** replace the 'w' symlink with a link to /home/wikipedia/common/live-1.4

In theory, things should now work.
Maybe :D
