If anyone does an upgrade from 3.0 let us know how you go and if there were any problems. I'm not going to jump in and upgrade mine just yet because breaking my girlfriends machine is infinitely scarier than killing a commercial server.
I've just upgraded a server from 3.0 to 3.1. Aptitude is the "official" way to perform the upgrade from 3.0 to 3.1 I believe, due to some deficiencies in apt-get. Upgrading desktops *will* be harder, due to the version bump in all your "desktop" apps. Eg, GNOME 1.4 to 2.8, etc. This might be a painful path, and it might be a lot easier to backup any useful data in your home directories, move them elsewhere, then start clean.
