200,000+ items! If the MARC import utility is going to be delayed for very
long, then we'll have to devise some other work-around to get our MARC data
into 1.9.x. Has anyone else found a way to move their MARC data into Koha? </pre>

It's not planned.<br>
In fact, i think it should be quite easy to do, with the C4/Biblio.pm library
in $koharoot directory.<br>
With NEWnewbiblio and NEWnewitem you can import a MARC::Record in the active
DB.<br>
with the C4/Breeding.pm script you should have sample to read a MARC::Record
file and manage it (C4/Breeding.pm is a new file only in CVS : check cvs
to be sure you've it. It comes from marcimport.pl script in 1.9.2 release)<br>

They don't migrate, they begin with an ILS !
