 * I currently run a phpbb2 forum on one of my websites.
    Rather than upgrade to
   phpbb3, I am looking to migrate to WordPress. I notice that there are import 
   procedures for other systems, but not phpbb.
 * Is there an import roadmap for this migration?
 * I don’t think I have the time to write one!
 * (although I am new to WordPress, I am not new to computing, web development, 
   databases , etc.)
 * Anyone?

 * So, if I understand you correctly, you want to import a bulletin board system
   into a blogging system (because you can’t actually do that in this case)? If 
   that’s the case, then I’d suggest you look at bbPress ([http://bbpress.org](http://bbpress.org)).
   I believe there’s a pretty decent phpBB importer for bbPress, and then there 
   are instructions there for integrating bbPress with WordPress.
