Hello All,
Perhaps this has already been covered, but so far I haven't seen any clear answer for converting from an existing community based on (in my case) Joomla! 1.0.5 Stable [ Sunspot ] to the current Drupal.
There are several communities I am looking to convert to Drupal because Joomla/Mambo create more problems than they solve. However there is existing content and a large member base I don't care to lose.
If someone has a detailed method of how to convert I will be very thankful. -- And will be sure to post it on one of our sites for others who may have the same question some day. :)

Userbase
The userbase is easy to move - save the users info to a csv file then import using the User Import module. You can even keep the same passwords:

I don't know about moving the content. Check for a Drupal module that does that.
