Since I was the one who created this tool, I should say a few words 
about it.

- it is supposed to update from a wiki with plaintext passwords to one 
with hashed passwords
- does that using a groovy script, an xwiki.jar and a hibernate config file
- it is currently not working out-of-the-box, as it uses a deprecated 
path to locate the xwiki jar
- it does not work with virtual wikis, just the main one
- it should be refactored into a proper tool, and it should be 
referenced in the upgrade notes for 1.0 => new releases (I think 1.0 
still had plaintext passwords, we should check when exactly did this change)
- after it is clean enough, it should be moved back into the trunks
