A couple of scripts and process' have been proposed, including one that Bill did on the wiki just the other day, perhaps you could start there and maybe combine the efforts ? Bill has been putting in a fair bit of effort into the upgrade process and is quite receptive to most ideas.
There was another, longer and more involved route, posted to the docs list - not sure if its on the wiki as yet.
Most processes I've seen so far on the lists here, although funcional, are very far from that I'm aiming at.
I want something clean, and 100% based on RPM (the script I'm proposing would only create a rpm package). In this case, it is better to start from scratch.
I'm not saying ther other method aren't good. They just are not what I want, and it is very easy for me to get on the wrong track is I base my efforts on theirs, as good as they are.
Comments ? Suggestions ?
just one comment - I'd really like to see a functional process that can move most peoples platform from 4.4 to 5.0 :)
As usual, time avaliability is my main problem. Thankfuly, at this point, I'm mostly running scripts and parsing results (gotta love sed).
