[turba] Upgrading sql backend

Hi all,

I've searched archives and google, so I apologize if I've missed the  
answer to my question.

I use the latest versions of all apps, updating regularly through cvs.

The recent changes to turba, for example the split of 'name' into  
'firstname' and 'lastname', breaks turba for me since the database  
does not store information the new way. I'm looking for a script to  
help automate the process of upgrading. I don't see such a script in  
the turba/scripts/upgrades. I understand that this script would be  
complicated, but somewhere to start would be helpful since my users  
have >400 entries in total. I'd hate to have to tell everyone they  
have to re-enter all contacts.

If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd sure appreciate it.  
I'm certain I'm not the only person facing this problem...

Thanks in advance!
Ernie
