We have some very loose upgrade docs in the devref [1].  Under the 
"Process" section, steps 4 and 5 talk about upgrading services in order 
and says conductor (implied controller) first.  Granted we need to clean 
up this page and merge with Dan's more specific blog post, but there is 
*something* in tree docs.
