Using ldc dumps is something we have discussed in here some time ago. I
guess it is already possible or will be in the near future, so keep your
dumps. Dirk and Jef should be able to give some more information.

Do you have your "old" logs also avaiable inside DiversDiary? There
might be an option to provide an import for them also if you could
provide some sample data.
