Following step 4 of the Worg instructions to install ELPA (http://orgmode.org/worg/org-faq.html#installing-via-elpa) in order to upgrade to a newer version of Org-Mode:

"If you are here it means that org is unavailable in the GNU's archives. Report this discrepancy to Orgmode mailing list. "

I'm reporting that I didn't find "org" as an option when I (finally) got the ELPA package manager installed. I'll try updating from a tarball.
