upgrading to lucid

[Tim Cross]

I have always used do-release-upgrade. This morning, I used it to upgrade to
lucid and all looks OK so far. 

I'm a bit old fashioned though. My main interface is based on emacspeak. I've
not used orca that much. Therefore, I tend to use text based apps over
graphics based ones, despite the fact I run under X.

I can't find much doccumentation on do-release-upgrade, are there any drastic differences btween what these two programs do?
