Moving Drupal 6 CCK fields from node down into content_multigroup

Follow me as I journey down a shaky path. 

Goal: I am moving some cck fields off of a Quote Node down into the experimental/abandoned/phantom project content_multigroup* whilst keeping the values from the database.  It is to be done with a combo of Feature revert and hook_update_n.

Developing in Drupal on a Mac - my journey from 0 to 60

Drupal Development Environment on Mac

DDB - a Drupal DDB Builder for building distributions on the fly

Ok, this is an unfair cross-post, but it's my cross-post, so comment where you will.. Either way, you'll have to wade through the copious collection of spam comments before I see it and approve...  What's this about captcha?

Here's what I posted on lullabot after listening to a great podcast:

Because all good projects need a name, I would start there: DDB ("Drupal DDB Builder").
