It is also worth to consider if the architecture/model of DB2 fits
PostgreSQL/MySQL. And while at it, how about getting rid of all the
itching quirks of the current solution anyway? I see the danger of
getting disappointed by any of PostgreSQL/MySQL if the current
solution uses DB2 features that cannot be easily mapped to any of the
contenders features.

Bottom line of my insinuation is that the migration tool could be less
an point if you get the opportunity to overhaul your application.
