Overview

Users should be able to migrate all their writing between Write.as and Write Freely blogs/instances.

Implementation

• Add Import button in Account Settings or wherever makes sense
• Accept a *.zip file upload
• Parse the archive, importing only *.txt files
  • Top-level files become anonymous posts / drafts
  • Directories create blogs (or skip creation if a blog with the name exists)
  • Files in directories get published to their corresponding blogs
  • The file's modified date is used as the post's created value; other metadata is left NULL

Changes to Export

We might also consider including some metadata in exported zip archives -- if not for every post, at least for each directory / blog.
