Hello,
I recently ran across this script: py-mysql2pgsql [1]
and this discussion on it's origin [2]. I'm keenly interested
in the recommendations of others for migrating mysql databases
to postgresql and any comments on this aforementioned script
or other methodologies
TIA,

James,
I haven't looked into this recently. But I believe that the DDLs and data can
be migrated relatively easy.
Just be aware that software specifically written using MySQLs version of SQL is
unlikely to work on a different RDBMS without extensive rewrites.
This is the biggest problem people are facing when porting websites to use a
different database.
What is the reason for migrating and what kind of data and applications are you
using?
