Really interesting. But hey, moving tables it's proper way to do it? There is no changes in tables right? So migrator will be just for comfort?

gnomeontherun commented 12 years ago

There is some information in the database that would have to be updated, such as the update site information. Beyond that, it can also be designed to uninstall any unused extensions that have been removed to reduce the overhead.

Not ALL tables. Only needed. Content. Menus. Users. ACL some other components. Those are not different at all. Right?

Less tables override less conflicts / errors possible.

This needs to be looked at closely before I know what exactly needs to be done.

True, it's not so easy to do. Just manual work. Importer would be great time saver.
