Import Questions and User details from OSQA
 

Hi AskBot people,

I would like to transition from OSQA to Askbot due to the ability of running AskBot as an app. Is there a way to import existing OSQA questions from a running OSQA system? Can I keep the user account information?

Thank you for your thoughts and suggestions.

Kind of a duplicate http://askbot.org/en/question/3184/fundraiser-is-it-possible-to-migrate-from-osqa-to/. We have tried to raise some cash to write a proper migration script but at the time failed, just did not have to time to find enough interested people. It is possible to create a quickie script to import certain data, but for a proper import we'd need about 1-2 work weeks.
