Create a way to migrate comments from one site to another

Even though I managed to finally move Intense Debate Comments from blogspot to wordpress, I have lost all threading and rating and the like. I think this will also happens if anyone decides to move domains or platforms since the permalink structure will likely change.
So I'm thinking it would be a good idea for you guys to have some way that people can take the IDC comments of a site, as they are, and move them to another domain or permalink structure, thus avoiding any importing/exporting procedures

So, say for example that I moved from dbzer0.blogspot.com to dbzer0.com. my permalinks changed from dbzer0.blogspot.com/2008/08/blah.html
to dbzer0.com/blog/blah

I could edit my IDC setting for that blog and update the permalink and domain settings to show IDC what my new format it. Then I just install the IDC plugin in my new blog and all my comments show as before.

This is probably not something easy to implement but it would be very very useful.

I just remove the link to the WordPress comments feed from the templates, since IDC already has a link to its own comments feed on the page (which looks like just a popup, but it's also a link).

Thanks for contacting me Lisa. What is the URL of the site where you are encountering this? Also, what web browser are you using? – Michael Koenig, on September 03, 2008 23:33

I'm hesitant to post it to the import panel since this has only been used by a handful of people and since we didn't write it. Josh has a new version? Maybe I got my versions mixed up. – Michael Koenig, on September 03, 2008 22:46

I have just signed up for intense debate through my local news channel website so that i could post a comment about a news story, but everytime i hit the submit button, the little spinny icon appears for a minute then up pops the above error message about connection issues and timing out but i know i am connected to the web. I'm not a computer savvy person so i don't understand why this is happening.

I would like to express my gratitude to Josh for the plugin. Without it, my IntenseDebate comments would have been stuck in limbo. :) – Yoo, on September 03, 2008 11:53

PS: You have an old version of the plugin. I suggest you ask Josh for a new version or even better, post this thing on the import panel somewhere for others to find – db0, on September 03, 2008 10:50

Thanks again for all the help Josh. I'll write a post at some point on how to use your plugin in Dreamhost. – db0, on September 03, 2008 10:49
