Thanks Jeremy and Birthe, I now see the release notes you referred to. Maybe I wasn't using the right terminology, but I guess I was looking for a specific section in the release notes about manual upgrade instructions (i.e. workaround to the automatic upgrade).
Before reading Jeremy's reply I was about to suggest opening GitHub issues for the upgrade process, but now I'm not sure it's anyhow a priority. Oh well.. on with the manual upgrades. Thank you all for the prompt replies.
