Upgrading Visual Source Safe and Visual Studio

I'm trying to lay out a plan for upgrading Visual Source Safe 6.0d to 2005,
and Visual Studio 03 to 2005 but I'm not finding any clear
information/documentation either on MSDN or in the readme. Specifically,
I'm trying to figure out the best upgrade order, the one which is least
likely to result in having problems/corrupt databases etc.
I'm thinking we should;
Uninstall VSS 6.0d on the Server
Install VSS 2005 on the Server
Uninstall the clients
Install the clients and make sure VSS05 is working with Visual Studio 03
Uninstall Visual Studio 03
Install Visual Studio 05
Alternatively,
Uninstall Visual Studio 03
Install Visual Studio 05
Make sure it's all working with VSS 6.0d
Then move on to uninstall VSS 6 and install VSS 05 on the Server
Finally, uninstall the VSS 6 clients and install VSS 05 clients.
Our environment; the VSS database is installed on Windows Server 03 SP2,
clients are all XP Pro, currently running VS2003. We have a fairly large
existing project in 6.0d, several developers with VS 2003.
If anyone out there has done this and had success, or maybe more
importantly, had problems, I'd be grateful for any insights.
I've read what there is on MSDN and the readme for VSS 05, it's thin and in
some places contradictory (MSDN says to install VSS05 over 6, the read me
says to uninstall VSS 6 first).
Thanks in advance;
David Craig.
