To all:

I uploaded the proposed migration script in bug report 705. This is a proposed script.

My ego is not that big. Feel free to improve the script in all ways! I added comments in the areas I know needs improvement right now.

Yet overall the script works wonderfully well here. So we're off to a good start. :)
