There is no migration path at the moment, but I am available for hire to create it. There are a few people who are interested in this.

This is something I could do with as well.

Am I right in thinking that this could be achieved purely with database manipulation? That is: changing the CCK references from op_video to bd_video and migrating the data from the op_ tables to the bd_ tables.

Although it's fiddly, would that work or is there more to it? I don't know what the implications of moving to StorageAPI are…

Did anyone tried to upgrade? I'll be forced to upgrade soon, so I'll start looking at the DB tables to see what needs to be moved...

Just wondering if anyone did this before....
I'll start looking at this again; I did it a few months ago, but specially the Storage API part was a bit confusing...
Will see..
