Hi Dariusz.
Currently the authorative details on this topic can be found at:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/office/aa905505.aspx
In a nutshell, this is a *migration* rather than an upgrade, and is
essentially a three step process:
1. anaylse existing solution, and determine if "refactoring" is required.
2. migrate data into MOSS using the built in capability - this punts over
the data with "White Master Pages" which have no branding/layout etc.
3. re-implement custom MCMS code using MOSS features or new custom code.
Plus implement Master Pages and Page Layouts to replicate your existing MCMS
templates.
3 is important because the PAPI, which your MCMS developers would have used
to create custom controls no longer exists.
This code needs replaced with OOTB stuff (e.g. Navigation controls - very
easy) or new controls (e.g. custom placeholder - a little more work but not
hard.) If you have code behind in your templates which uses PAPI this also
needs to be replaced - generally things like meta tags and so forth are easy
to deal with using the new MOSS controls.
You should run the CMS Assessment tool (available at the above link) first -
this will identify which PAPI classes are being used.
Also check out
for data migration common issues, such as duplicate item names.

With respect to telerik, they have also made available Telerik Rad Editor
for MOSS at www.sharepointcontrols.com
With respect to MCMS Standard Edition, there is presently no similar edition
of MOSS, and if you are intending to deploy an Internet facing site, you
will require the MOSS for Internet Sites SKU. I am not a licencing
specialist and would strongly urge you to speak to your MSFT Account Manager
for more information.
