Migration from VastHTML?

   I've got a forum currently set up and running at You Suck at Craigslist using VastHTML forums, but I'm not really happy with the way that that forum software works.

   Is there a way to install bbPress and import the existing users/posts/threads in? And perhaps more importantly, is it relatively easy, given that I know just enough about this stuff to hurt myself?

   I think with any sort of forum software where there exists no conversion software that you are going to need to write the SQL to grab the information you have, massage it, and insert it into WordPress. I don't think it will be hard work, but it will be some work.
