Why don't you just take our entire install with a real database dump and delete what you don't want. I'm sure with a little consultation with the other projects they probably wouldn't mind. Then you can have the whole self-contained beast up and running, who cares about the migration just delete what's non-apache and go from there. It's MySQL on both ends so probably not that big a deal. > I'll point out the irony of yelling about infrastructure throwing up > roadblocks on the day that you asked for a change in the infrastructure, > volunteered to do the work on it, and became part of the infrastructure > team. :-) I don't think it's anyone intentionally throwing up roadblocks. I don't think any of it is intentional when things don't get done it's just entropy kicking in. And I have been helped many times and I am not thankless but there still are obstacles but I'm fully willing to discuss the problem and try to help, take care of things I can myself to alleviate the burden on infrastructure. > --- Noel > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- jvz.
