Awesome! Just what I needed to hear! :D No worries on the older 
versions, I only run Trunk on all of my live sites except of course that 
2.2.spencerp.net test site. :) And for those running UTW plugin, which 
is my main two spencerp.net and vindictivebastard.net ... so.. I'll have 
to take things slow with them I guess...

I'll attempt upgrades later today or tonight. I'm not going to do this 
while lacking sleep. Thanks so much Ryan! :)
