And so the inevitable question (my google-fu seems to have lost a wonderful post with numbered steps, so apologies…)_

I'm currently on 0.24.1 fixes with a mythbuntu version of 10.10 (upgraded)
I'd like to go to 12.04 LTS
and 0.27

What order should I go in, and what intermediate releases of either OS or mythtv should I take ?

Its a given that I clone my HD beforehand and backup the database, but I'd prefer to try an upgrade first before a clean install/db restore as there are a few customisations on the system

Cheers and thanks for a graceful piece of software
