Added the rest of the cloud team that I know of.

Just FYI, I'm working on incorporating the process @clintongormley outlined into the stack upgrade doc.

Seeing a lot of interest (and excitement) for this in the field; is there any public-facing information, documentation, blog, etc we can point them to? Or will it become available only when we release 6.0?

@kurtado Things are very much in-flight, but docs are deployed whenever there's a merge to the master branch. If people are curious, I'd point them to https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack/master/upgrading-elastic-stack.html, but, again, it's a work in progress. Some recent work that @debadair has done should be available there shortly.

I have opened a PR for manually migrating the Kibana index: elastic/kibana#13696

@debadair I've compiled some of my notes here: https://docs.google.com/a/elastic.co/document/d/1ZlpO_ANn0FF4sFD5tRUAZSYvVWktetIgYqPdtMH7pLQ/edit?usp=sharing

Please let me know if I can follow up on anything, I've tried to sum up the notes with a table at the top.

I have a few PRs up for concerns with how things are worded in the docs.
