Classic data transition issue. Dump the data with the old software, reload the data with the new software. Both bsddb and sqlite are pretty fast, the latter of which has nice bulk inserts, after-the-fact index creation, ..., which can reduce the time it takes to do the transition. - Josiah _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
