Turns out sng files from Presentation Manager (PM) have three different formats:
1) XML, introduced in PM v7 (?), easy to convert
2) proprietary text-based format (PM v6?), somewhat ambiguous
3) plain text (simply verses separated by blank lines)

I have completed a stand-alone script in AHK and used it to convert a user's 
library of 4600 songs to OpenLyrics.
Next step: port to python and OpenLP import class.

Title:
  Support Presentation Manager song import

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:

Bug description:
  Presentation Manager holds its songs in XML format. We should include an 
import option for these files.
  They have a 30 day demo at http://presentationmanager.com

  Songs are in c:\synapx\masterdata\songs.
  An example is attached.
