[Web-erp-developers] Re: First Mysql 2 Pgsql util and ConnectDB for Postgres

[Phil D. <ph...@du...>]

Hi Danie,

Just thinking about this ....

This conversion program is fantastic for those who wish to convert an existing 
db - I am sure it would have wider appeal that just weberp too! 

Those more familiar with pg might want to use it from the start even. If you 
could send me a pg db dump then I should include this in the distribution too 
... I think? I don't have python installed. Maybe I'd better and then I can 
get a script to create the necessary db scripts.
