All I can say is that if Citrix software is written as well as their
documentation, we're all in deep doo doo.

Perhaps for a small farm, but medium and large farms it is much more
difficult to get approvals upgrade the whole farm(Departments, Analysts,
Vendors, and the customer themselves)... It can take anywhere from 3-12
months to get everything tested and upgraded.
A Service Pack is a much easier sell. Here is what the Admin Guide has to
say about SP 2005.04:
Apply Service Pack 2005.04 to MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0. Select this
option
to apply all service packs for MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0. This
option does
not update your server to the feature set for MetaFrame Presentation Server
4.0.
This option fixes only problems solved since the last full release of
MetaFrame
Presentation Server 3.0.

I just confirmed from Citrix support that this is supposed to say 2005.04,
not Service Pack 4. The updated version of the file will be posted
eventually.
Note that this is a recommendation, not a requirement. However, if your
subscription advantage expiration date is past 4/27, I don't see any point
to installing 2005.04 instead of installing PS 4.0 since they are
essentially the same thing and you are already licensed for PS 4.0.

MetaFrame Service Pack 4 Required on Servers running MetaFrame Presentation
Server 3.0
Citrix does not recommend mixing servers running MetaFrame Presentation
Server 3.0 and 4.0 in the same farm. However, if you must install MetaFrame
Presentation Server 3.0 and 4.0 on servers in a single farm, make sure you
update your servers running MetaFrame Presentation Server 3.0 to Service
Pack 4. [#109701]

Found this note....
NOTE: This image also includes Service Pack 2005.04 for MetaFrame
Presentation Server 3.0
??
Is this the required piece we have never heard of for MPS 3.0 upgrade to
4.0?
