[Imc-drupal-dev] switching from DadaIMC to Drupal - any conversion script?

[eric]

hello folks,
i'm the tech for bigmuddy who's doing the switch to drupal from dada. my 
concerns are much less grand than yours. as the only linux tech, for this 
imc it is just too time consuming dealing with dada. documentation is 
available and upgrades are relatively simple for drupal something missing 
from dada. i haven't even considered trying to transfer data as yet. i was 
told by the sydney people that it was not possible. you might want to try 
contacting someone at indymedia.be about it as they really are more familiar 
than most. if you do discover a way to do the transfer, please let me know.
best
eric
