There was quite a big leap from 2.2.x to 3.0 and another, although not quite
as big, leap from 3.x to 4.0.
I've heard one way is to upgrade to 3.5-STABLE, then upgrade again to
4.0-STABLE (soon to be 4.1). Rumour has it 2.2.x to 4.0 direct isn't
feasible.
Personally, I'd back up all my data, make note of all my server configs, and
install 4.0 from scratch...
