Hi Peter,

What issues did you hit before? (Have we already talked about them?
Apologies if we have..). We can generally help with relocation and upgrade
issues under support contracts, in case you want to discuss that option.

As for ID numbers, they're based on the next auto-incremented ID returned
from the database. So what you can do is create a dummy entry in
reviews_reviewrequest with ID, say, 9999, and then Review Board's next ID
will be 10000. You can then delete the dummy entry so it's not sticking
around.

I'd recommend taking the time to go through every table from the old
database and make sure there's a dummy entry at a higher ID in the new
database, to basically reserve space in each table. That way, if you want
to work with us later on getting the old data moved over to the newer
version, we should be able to just merge the databases and keep all history
in the new place.
