I have been having a persistant problem with unicode getting munched when I upgraded my sites. Turns out I have been messing up when I copy my old db. I should be doing:
mysqldump -h host -u user -ppassword --default-character-set=utf8 old_db > db.mysql
mysql -h host -u user -ppassword --default-character-set=utf8 new_db < db.mysql
utf8
Hey Tao! How funny... I was just Googling for this same information (I can never remember the arg) and happy to find you here. Hope the new gig is going well.
Best,

coincidences abound
Hello Tao,
Just came across this googling for the right command flag too! Hope you're well!

Hi Louise! Small internet isn't it?
