 * I have quite a few web sites I support that use WordPress. When there is an update
   to WordPress, I deactivate all the plugings on each site and the install on each
   site and then reactviate the plugins on each site. This takes a while to do. 
   So I don’t want to do it if I don’t really need to.
 * My question is if I skip upgrading to a release will I be able to just upgrade
   directly to a future release or do I have to upgrade them all in sequence?
 * Thanks.
