Angel, I added your Migrator code to the Roller Support project (http://roller.dev.java.net), which is where we host plugins, add-ons that are not included in the Apache Roller release.
I did some work to make the code build via a simple Ant script. I setup a directory structure for it and added a build script which packages it for distribution. Please check it out and make sure it still works for you. 1) Checkout the code for Roller Support project See the instructions here for checking out the code for the Roller support project https://roller.dev.java.net/source/browse/roller/ 2) Change dirs to the migrator directory cd roller_support/tools/migrator 3) Build the migrator ant build 4) Test it out. First, cd to dist/migrator edit the migrator script and roller-custom.properties file and run. I did not test, but I did take a look at the code and I did notice a couple of things. First, you use the name JRoller but this code doesn't really have anything to do with JRoller.com, it's for Roller. That's not a big deal. Second, I noticed some category names that look hard-coded, like "Hobbies" and "Tech Talk" -- are those your categories or standard ones from Blojsom? Third, you did not include any copyright messages or license headers. Would you like to release those code under the Apache license, just like Roller itself? Would you like the code to be "Copyright 2007 Angel Vera"? I'll add the appropriate LICENSE and NOTICE files and headers for that. Fourth and final, how generic is this code? How hard would it be to support migrations from other blog servers with this code base? Once you check it out and we fix any problems I may have introduced, I'll make the binaries available in the file download area of Roller Support.
