[rt-users] How to convert an existing RT from Postgres to MySQL?

Someone wants me to convert their Postgres backed RT to MySQL. Doesn't
matter why, they want it. :)

Here's what I am thinking.

1. Shut down the web server.
2. Dump the DB data.
3. Reconfigure RT for MySQL.
4. Run initdb
5. Load the data.
6. Restart the RT/web server.

Have I covered all my bases? Are there any wrinkles to this Postgres ->
MySQL move that I need to be aware of?

Thanks!
