I think you've misunderstood the nature of this upgrade. I'm *not*
upgrading the machine BrumOG is currently on, I'm installing a
brand new installation of OG on a new machine, and have an SQL file
resulting from a postgresql dump that I want to be able to import, and
for it all to just work ;)

Hence why I was asking for a conversion script that would amend the
inserts to ensure all the field names were correct and anything new was
populated with default values.

That isn't the same as a rollback. While it's been useful when there
have been spam attacks, it's also useful to rollback when inappropriate
content is posted, when deleteing everything by a single person is not
what you want. I may have misunderstood this, but until I've got it up
and running and seen it for myself, I suspect a rollback work along side
this.

Cheers,
Barbie.
