0/ export the records from SOUL v1 as CCF
1/ process the CCF by importing it into WinISIS
2/ export as marc from winisis
3/ clean up / correct / modify using MarcEdit
4/ load up into Koha and ensure the zebra indices are reindexed

If you are a programmer, you could also bypass steps 1 and 2, and
instead write your own script to parse CCF and output into a Marc
Breaker format. rest would remain same.

And btw, Koha is not an acronym. So it is always "Koha" and not "KOHA" :-)

cheers
