How about Connectors for Content Management Systems? Wordpress, Joomla, and Drupal, to facilitate moving from one to the other?

I hope that some Apatar wizard can answer whether these and other required transforms are possible with Apatar:

I took some notes on Drupal to Joomla:

node_revisions has actual content, including forum start entries. So, some records would go to jos_content (can filter these, right?)

others would go to the tables of the forum component (of which there may be a handful of options). This would be another filter, with a case type logic to check on the existence of certain tables in the target db.

Images referenced can be moved to Media Manager folders and paths cleaned up. This would mean parsing the HTML in certain fields, perhaps downloading images, then sending them to folders on the server.

comments (K2?) - can be on forum posts or stories - Relation to the target needs to be maintained, and, like forum, may be added to one of several different commenting systems/tables, including the Joomla core one.

node table has part of jos_content (page, story), forum (Kunena) start (initial post) records identified by the type field.

boxes become modules - added to the jos_modules table.

Thanks for any guidance.
