Default Hibernation Time!

Its that time of year when I put some of my gear into hibernation. I appreciate that care must be taken to ensure gear wakes up next year bright and fresh so.... (I can hear Don's laughter from here )

I know lenses must be stored vertically for lubricating oils to rest evenly but what about camera bodies?

Bodies are delivered in their boxes with LCD screen down and the lens mount is facing upward but its easier to store the camera resting on its rubber base/tripod mount, what way of orientation is best to preserve the lubricant around the shutter and mirror assembly?
