Just one thing. It seems you missed the database update part in your automatic updates. Overwriting the sources with a new version is not enough, you need to run through all your blogs and call something like /wp-admin/update.php or something along these lines to update the database. Otherwise you will often find that updated code refuses to work with old database and you don't even know it as it was automatic. Great write-up, Alex. Just one thing.
