My ETA is 13 days to convert a million posts from xf_post to phpbb_posts. I wish there was a faster way. More I try the more it looks like phpBB is no longer an op...

Hello! I've been hoping for the past month that phpBB had any life in their converters. But, it appears every converter for phpBB is dead right now. I posted this a month ago and have yet to find a fix so I can convert a forum with almost a million posts to phpBB because we wish to use phpBB now. SQ...

How do we fix this?
