I have been unsuccessful,  despite some good efforts to help me from kind folks here,  in importing my Wordpress blog.  I was able to VERY EASILY migrate from Movable Type to Wordpress by simply exporting from MT to a file and then importing that same file by choosing Movable Type from an Import Application in the Wordpress admin. 

I REALLY do want to be able to do the same with my Wordpress blog.  Is there anything new or coming soon along this line?

You may like to keep an eye out for the Migrator Project Nick at http://nbdev.co.uk/ is doing.  If not, I soon expect there to be some good tools for migrating from Graffiti to Community Server and as Graffiti (http://graffiticms.com) has an importer for a Wordpress blog, that may be another option.

The migrator project, which will be out in april will do wordpress as one of the example providers.  Yep, WordPress <-> Community Server.  It'll be 2007.1 for now until 2008 is offical.  But wordpress is one of the 3 main providers being developed, the others being CS and vBulletin.

Work on the CS provider is on hold atm due to some coursework issues at uni, but as soon as that's done, WordPress is next, with vBulletin being the final one.
