Hi Katie Sorry for hijacking this thread... Hopefully you can come to the hackfest and it won't be in vain.
One other piece of advice: If you are using any source control (like GIT or SVN), set up some branches for the new versions of your app that might run on a newer version of Ruby, Rails, Passenger, or any other part of the stack. Then you can really play around with your dev environment without fear of corrupting something that is already working for you.
