And also... for the conversion, if you're using Markdown with
Smartypants from Typo
and you have syntax like this:
[this is my link][1]
[1]: http://mywebsite.com "My Website"
Where you have a quoted phrase for the link title, you'll have to
switch the smartypants filter to do the
BlueCloth first and the RubyPants second, instead of the other way
around... What happens if they are reversed (how they are in svn) is
that the "My Website" get's parsed through RubyPants and never get's
picked up from BlueCloth and ends up not creating the link due to
invalid syntax.
I offered Rick Olson (of Mephisto) a patch for the change, but he has
some tests that break it.... and i have some tests (valid syntax)
that breaks the opposite. Stuck between Scilla and Charybdis.

Well... there were a few things I had to change....
1) the Flickr plugin API key was bad, so I used my own...
2) I used Markdown with Smartypants on Typo... so I had to hard
code the conversion script to use smartypants_filter as the value
for the filter for all incoming articles, it was incorrectly
converting from Typo.
3) I added a few rewrite routes in the configuration of Mephisto
and changed a few variables in the settings (admin site) so that
the URLs were exactly the same.
4) I also had to ensure that EVERY one of my typo users had an
email address specified... otherwise it wouldn't work.
5) It also breaks if any of your flickr images (using
<typo:flickr>) are not there anymore... so I had to change one of
my entries manually...
I wrote up about the routes on my blog:
http://www.thoughtstoblog.com/articles/2007/1/13/from-typo-to-mephisto
A few routes I talk about in the article can be configured using
path prefixes in settings...
I also took the opportunity to bring my feed to feedburner as well,
did some hard redirects so that blog aggregators updated properly...

I have been considering the Mephisto move too. I actually have it
up and running with some of my content migrated. The script
mephisto provided for migration didn't migrate any of my Pages.
How did your migration go?
