I've done a few Drupal upgrades on live sites, and they weren't too bad as long as you stick to the details of the procedure. Hopefully Plone is comparable.

well, it looks like a fairly non-trivial thing to upgrade Plone/Zope, not something i'd want to attempt without a well defined plan and a very solid backup of the current setup. probably the best thing is to get some additional server space or a spare machine to practice on. from everything i've seen you have to migrate the DB from 2.X to 3.X, and then again from 3.X to 4.1. if the pdinfo's version of Plone has a lot of extra plugins or add-ons added the migration becomes even more protracted and difficult to manage.

Wow, and it looks like its running Debian 4.x, that's not even supported
anymore. Debian 5.x is 'oldstable', and they just released the last
update for that one.
This is probably a question for IOhannes: what's the blocker on
upgrading Debian on that machine? Is there a way someone else could
help with that? I've done quite a few Debian upgrades over the years,
for example.
the blocker is currently the Plone instance.
as long as there hasn't been a migration to a new (build-out based!) zope/plone, i cannot upgrade debian.
