-MySQL 4.1 and greater implemented changes in character set handling
-that may result in failures.  Since RT now has utf8 encoded tables,
-having old RTFM tables in the latin1 characterset will cause errors
-while using RTFM.
-
-In order to resolve this issue we've changed our schema for mysql 4.1 and greater
-versions.
-
-If this is a new install of RTFM on RT 3.8, you do not need to worry about this.
-
-If you're migrating from MySQL 4.0 to MySQL 4.1 and newer then you MUST follow
-instructions at the bottom of this file.
-
-If you're upgrading RTFM and RTFM was originally a version below 2.4.0 you
-MUST follow these instructions.
-
-=== Upgrading RT from versions prior to 3.8.0 ===
-
-1) Backup RT database. It's really good to test that you can restore from
-   this backup.
-
-2) Follow the README to step 4 (make install)
-
-3) Apply changes described in step 3 of UPGRADING
-
-4) Apply mysql 4.0->4.1 schema changes. RTFM tarball has script
-etc/upgrade/upgrade-mysql-schema.pl that generates SQL queries to upgrade schema of
-the DB. Run it:
-
-    perl etc/upgrade/upgrade-mysql-schema.pl db user pass > sql.queries
-
-5) Check sanity of sql queries yourself or consult with your DBA
-
-6) Apply queries. Note that this step can take a while. May require additional
-   space on your hard drive comparable with size of your tables.
-
-    mysql -u root -p rt3 < sql.queries
-
-NOTE that 'rt3' is the default name of the RT DB, change it in the command above
-if you're using different name.
-
-This step shouldn't produce any errors or warnings, but if you see some then revert
-DB from backup you made at step 1) and send report to the
-rt-users at lists.bestpractical.com mailing list.
-
-7) Return to the README at step 6 and set up your config and continue.
-
-8) Test everything.
