I'll report back when I finish the upgrade. Just ordered the Pi, RTC, etc. So it may take some time, depending on my schedule.
Would it be better if I allow the database upgrade to finish before I connect the weather station (Vantage Pro 2 + Envoy) or it doesn't really matter? I didn't really change the default skin much (as far as I recall). Is it still necessary to copy the skin files?
