Issues with Gradual Upgrade to MOSS from the Learning Gateway
I tried to do a gradual upgrade (making a copy of the existing content DB and running an upgrade on it) to MOSS on an existing Learning Gateway 2003 and it kept failing until I eventually removed the 16 LG web parts using STSADM. Unfortunately this broke a lot of the sites even though the upgrade procedure went through. The sites based on the LG templates were giving errors in MOSS mainly due to the 'Welcome' code embedded in the page. Also I found that document libraries in LG pages came across as Data Connection Libraries. Don't know if this is a one off but haven't had time to test it further as I am on a customer site. I have now created a new MOSS farm and recreated the LG site structure. I will be migrating document libraries manually.
Update:
The conclusion I have come to is that there is no upgrade path from Learning Gateway 2003 to MOSS 2007.

Multiple documents uploaded to a document library configured with minor versions and enforced check-out are draft and checked out
No Adobe PDF documents are returned in the search results when you search a Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 Web site
If the WSS 3.0 site already has PDF documents before you installed the Adobe iFilter on the server, you will have to modify a property of the existing PDF documents on the server so that WSS can subsequently crawl it.

SharePoint Learning Kit requires specific permissions for the SLK Database or you get an error performing E-Learning Actions
SLK reports "An error occurred. More information may be available in the server event log." You may also see
"Cannot open database "SharePointLearningKit" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user '
This is resolved by assigning the Application Pool Account for the Web Application in question the following rights to the SLK database in SQL Management Studio:
Db_datareader
Db_datawriter
LearningStore
