-- SUMMARY --

Migrator aims to become a generic migration module to convert an existing site
to Drupal.  It has been developed to support various other/external/remote
systems, like Joomla!, Wordpress, aso. through modularized/out-sourced data
retrieval functions.  It allows to map existing user roles and users, so that
a Drupal site can be pre-built and, for example, all contents of the remote
system user 'administrator' (with uid 123) can be mapped to the existing Drupal
user 'admin' (with uid 1).  All non-mapped objects will get new object ids upon
migration.

Currently, support for Joomla! 1.0.x is on the way.  Optional support for
additional remote system modules (or in other terminologies like Joomla!:
Components) is planned.
