Oh, but you don't understand. Yes, it worked for someone at that time. But how is a person writing this FAQ supposed to write a document that says how to go from any random point in time, to any random point further on in the future? And then test that? What do you suggest? Because the only other alternative is to DELETE the upgrade faq. Do you understand where we am coming from? If you expect a perfect document, with such a tight constraint, it is really totally impossible for anyone to write.
