There is none.
There also isn't a separate document for Postgres. MySQL has a number of special steps required that aren't needed for Oracle or Pg. You should review docs/UPGRADING-3.6 3.8 and 4.0 along with the README. All the upgrading instructions are there. You may also want to test 4.0.1rc1 since it includes a number of bugfixes for issues discovered in 4.0.0. -kevin
