Hi,
after switching a big forum that already existed several years to vbulletin, there will be a lot of external direct-links (Google!) formerly pointing to threads or postings of your forum that won`t work anymore. Therefore it would be great if some kind of translation table could be created during the import. This could be the basis of some Apache-rewrite rules that create redirect permanent lines out of this table.
I need such a feature and in the open source world, I would now start a call for sponsoring and ask who else is interested and would throw a few bucks in the bucket. But this is a commercial system and I have no clue how it is handled here.
Ciao,
Sacha
