If you've inherited data in a postgresql database this will allow
you to migrate it to the industry standard database without the
inconvenience and downtime of a dump from postgresql and
a restore into mysql.

I don't think it's a new idea - IIRC, Aprile Pazzo did something
similar for MySQL 3 and PG 7.something.
