I think one of the issues is that practically all the community testing is 
based on new installs. Since we didn't appear to have a published upgrade 
procedure available for 4.x to 4.2, it made it very hard to test in a reliable 
way. 
I did try a couple of upgrades from 4.02 and 4.1 in my lab, and was unable to 
bring up the virtual routers (non VPC). But I assumed maybe I missed something 
in the upgrade procedure, so I didn't consider it valid. 

We do need to have a think about how we can encourage the community to try 
upgrades and publish the results. But in order to do so, we need well 
documented upgrade steps to remove any ambiguity.

We do need to ensure that we have the db upgrade fix that was mentioned on 
the other thread, otherwise people going from 4.1 to 4.2 will have their 
VPCs break. Looks like we are waiting on a script. It sounds like the plan 
will be to provide instructions in the release notes. Really wish we would 
have caught that, its not just that we find bugs at RC, but the severity of 
ones we miss is astounding sometimes.
