Packaging custom properties for mysites in sharepoint 2010

Question

Is it possible to package custom properties that i manually create for profile for mysites in sharepoint 2010. E.G. music, hobbies ...

So next time i just next time i dont need to do it manually when im putting mysite on the production. So i just execute some wsp to create them all etc.

If it is possible, then how do i do that.

Any usefull links or info would be appreciented.

Thanks in advance

PS: extra information to clarify things:

What are properties im talking about: I created a mysite host, and i have my profile the profile has standard properties like skills, interests, name, etc etc. For my solution i needed extra properties like hobby, sport, music etc ...

So what i did i went to user profiles in administration central and i manually added those properties to user profile, now when you open the profiles i see those properties.

So to avoid that extra manual work i want to make sure those 3 extra properties are created automatically. So i dont go to do it all over again on production server, but instead i deploy a package and the properties are there ... but the question is how do i do that and is it possible?

Links or extra infor is appreciated

If you need it to be a repeatable proces, script it:
