phpBB Conversion path
Just to confirm, this would currently be phpBB 2/3 -> SMF 2.0 -> Elkarte 1.0? Has anyone tried it?

Oops. Totally forgot about your open importer. My bad.
BTW, why is that not in the Elk Tools site?

Speaking of, OpenImporter gives me this lovely error:
Warning: require_once(__DIR__/OpenImporter/SplClassLoader.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /path/to/public_html/forum3/import.php on line 12
Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '__DIR__/OpenImporter/SplClassLoader.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php') in /path/to/public_html/forum3/import.php on line 12

Github, master branch, check.
I'll note that this shared host is on PHP 5.2.17. Hence the struggle with magic_quotes in another thread, but Elkarte was able to successfully install once I turned those off via a php.ini. I can't imagine why OpenImporter would run at a higher version than Elkarte, but it's possible that's the problem.
I'm not certain why Elkarte tools would need to be officially maintained by the Elkarte team. The addons and themes are mostly not, and you happily link to them from those sites. I don't see that this is much different. However, if this is really a sticking point, then it seems to me that the OI creator should be asked if their tool can be officially linked. If development ever stops, it is BSD 3-clause, so you could simply fork it and make your Elkarte OpenImporter if necessary.

Did you try the "fix"?
I don't have 5.2 handy, so I cannot be sure it's the only thing that breaks the compatibility...
