I've been already waiting for a question like this ;-)
There are no ready made solutions for that yet, but it will be quite
simple as soon as somebody did the first transformation.
The strategy I would choose:
1. Have SmallWiki 1, the Pier-Model and your data in one image.
2. Write a SmallWiki 1 visitor that walks over the old data producing
the new model. This should can be fairly simple, basically tree
methods that map:
SWPage/SWFolder -> PRPage
SWResource -> PRFile
While visiting the pages you parse the wiki-string of the old content
with the new parser to get the new document representation.
3. Users, Groups, Persistency have then to be converted manually.
4. Publish the code of the transformation visitor to <

Tell me if there are any problems.
Cheers,
Lukas
