Okay, I know I tend to be a bit naive at times, but I really don't get this. Every time there's talk of upgrading Drupal this comes up. Exactly what modules are we using in 4.6 that wouldn't be available if we upgraded to 5.x or 6.x? And why does there have to be a major theme effort? Evidently everyone is content with the theme we have now, just port the thing over to whatever version of Drupal we upgrade to. If someone wants to redesign it, let that be a separate project. 

I've seen this come up a couple times in the past and folks start throwing all sorts of unnecessary requirements on the project and, as a result, the project looks overwhelming so everyone backs off and nothing is done.

If I'm missing something, would someone please point it out to me.
