All, please coordinate this with OSGeo SAC. There are some potential
quirks to upgrading the OS on the virtual machines.

As for the websites, Django in a virtualenv will actually break on the
upgrade when the python version changes, a fresh virtualenv will need to
be created, the correct python packages re-added (pip makes this easy)
and the site files copied in.

Sphinx I think is from backports, redmine should continue to work as is
even if the ruby gets updated slightly.

Thanks,
