curious if anyone has any experience with upgrading an existing DB with a new snapshot (PEQ in this case) while trying to preserve accounts/characters/inventories. i'm thinking of upgrading from luclin-release to the still-hot-from-the-oven cvs snapshot but i dont want to lose my players toons or inventories.

any pointers or hints appreciated.

worked like a champ. thx roja :)
