   I would really love it if we could have some discussion on import/export functions for bbPress. The only current way to move posts around would be an database dump and that is not really the best way ;) I was thinking about looking at the techsailor plugin for RSS import/export for wordpress and see if it would be possible to get bbPress into that format so you could even export bbPress and import as blog posts and comments (or vice versa). Obviously I would have trouble doing this with my minimal coding, but hopefully someone else has something to add!

   Thoughts?

   bbPress has a fledgling xml exporter. We had a discussion on IRC#bbpress recently about creating an importer of the same format.

   This would be great for migrations and backups, and if we wrote some code for other forum software to export to this same format, we would have greater ability to cross-grade.
