My list just off the top of my head:

• Close forums
• Transfer plugins
• Transfer files
• Run upgrade scripts
• Update wdf_definitions for forumids, etc.
• Add FAQ items
• Add a couple phrases
• Rebuild WDF Notifier to point to proper server
• Update vB settings
• Make full file/db backup
• Put up downtime message
• Import TD into reputation system

There's a lot more. I'm looking at five hours straight. I'm literally nervous right now just thinking about doing it. You've never seen vB customized this much before.

Ughhh! I am running 3.0.3 on my largest site soooo I feel ya. I have so much customized coding involved that I just dont think I could recall it all. Of course I have tried saving everything in files for such a case, but I have been through 5 hard drives since then.

Maybe tomorrow would be better time to do it. Most people will be sleeping in with hangovers. That way you have tonight to enjoy.
