Wow, I hope you can jump through fire :)

I have only started at 4.5+ up which seemed easy enough, you'd have to dig 
up the docs for 3.4 -> 4.5 though.

Also, you should backup your entire environment before you do something 
like that so you can easily revert back if it doesn't work out so well.

Also it'd be good to do it in stages, go to 4.5, sit for a week, then 
5.1mp6, then sit for a week, etc.

Justin.
