sf-active EOL and migration tools

The venerable sf-active content management system is at end-of-life: it's no longer being developed, supported or maintained.

Over the past month, sf-active developers have been hard at work on migration tools allowing sites to be migrated from sf-active to other content management systems. Here's a list of what's available so far:

• sfactive-atom.php: Exports an sf-active database to Atom XML:
  • https://gitorious.org/sf-active/sfactive-migration-tools/archive-tarball/master
  • git clone git://gitorious.org/sf-active/sfactive-migration-tools.git
• sfa2wp: Migrates an sf-active database to WordPress:
  • https://gitorious.org/sf-active/sfactive-to-wordpress/archive-tarball/master
  • git clone git://gitorious.org/~occam/sf-active/sfactive-to-wordpress.git
• sfa-drupal: Migrates an sf-active site to Drupal 7:
  • https://gitorious.org/sf-active/drupal/archive-tarball/7.x-1.x
  • git clone git://gitorious.org/sf-active/drupal.git
  • https://drupal.org/project/sfactive
