Yes, for straight-foward things, I've been able to use DataPort to
convert from Oracle to hsqldb.   For other tables, I've used dbunit
export and import to xml.

I'm not sure DataPort is meant to solve foreign key problems or more
generally to be a robust, generic and scalable solution for converting
between arbitrary databases where the source database is possibly
corrupt.

Isn't DataPort rather an example of something that can be modified to
do what one needs?

Some problems:

For our project I've mangled dataport to do my dirty deeds(e.g.
handling duplicate!! primary keys, etc.).
