I'm doing this table by table, line by line. Each table, I learn
something new about the differences between MySQL and Postgres, I
mentally catalog it and I can always look it up in my own code next time
for examples.
I've a tool that is providing some help but sometimes it chokes. It
choked on this one for example.
I could use some clues as to how to go about converting this MySQL
implementation of roles to Postgres.
So far I've been through 5 tables and it is getting easier but I'm still
getting stuck now and then.
