I saw a lot of efforts have been made about this on the wiki and the plan, as far as I see it on the wiki page in question [1], is about to migrate Xoops+CBB(newbb) to phpBB. (which is a forum software which seems to meet all the requirements you kindly posted above here) So, definitely yes, everything from users to posts must be preserved while migrating to the new platform. Feel free to let me know if i can help you with something else. > Similar concerns apply to the Wiki - Seamless migration of existing > content, and an easy path for contributors to continue their work, while > preventing bad guys from doing damage. I guess the wiki won't be touched at first time since it is hosted on its own domain and it is just linked to the website. Anyway it will have to be centralized to the main LDAP istance, but there are some handy guides around.
