I currently have 04.05.03 installed and working mostly correct. I have a few small issues of which some were fixed in the new 04.05.04 release, such as login redirect issue. I want to upgrade to the new version, and looked through many postings to see how to do this. I did come across some directions that were posted at the following URL:

Now those directions look fine, but I am confused. It seems as though if i do the upgrade I will have to reinstall all 3rd party modules, is that right? I have worked so hard (through much trial and error, and forum postings, etc) to finally get the current installation stable, and to think I would have to reinstall these modules, would be a very scary thing for me. I may be misunderstanding the directions, so please advise me on if this is the case. If so, I would rather manually make some the patch fixes, such as the redirect login problem. Is there a way for me to see exactly what ws fixed in the code? I mean I can see in the release notes the original problem, but it doesn't say the resolution, except that its fixed in the newest release.
Possibly the answers to my questions, may help other newbies like myself to understand the upgrade process.
Thank you for your help.
