I'm struggling with revising the upgrade instructions for the 2.0 release.
See http://codex.wordpress.org/User:MichaelH/Revised_Upgrade_Instructions

Note:  the contents of this document will be put into the 'live' article
http://codex.wordpress.org/Upgrading_WordPress when 2.0 is official.

Issues to address:
1.  Should the .htaccess file be backed up and what should be done with that
file once the upgrade is completed?
2.  What should be deleted or not deleted in wp-content?  We advise users
not to use FTP to overwrite files so what should be the recommended
approach?
3.  How to address the permission issues regarding the wp-db-backup.php
plugin?

Thanks for any input.
