nodes

Hey all,

Is there a module that synchronizes two Drupal sites, migrating nodes created one in the other? My sites are D5 -> D6. I'd like to preserve URL aliases if possible. Mainly I'm synchronizing blogs, with all the related comment/user/node issues. I've seen some ideas out there (Node Export with Node Import), but I'd like to know if anyone has done this simply or has some clever idea.

I have been writing up a white paper on how Drupal could work, but wanted to submit an initial and important first step. I know allot of people see comments as nodes being a major issue. Many want it, while others site potential problems with performance. Without comments as Nodes we have no code uniformity making any CCK features and Views features needing exceptions based on if its a node or if its a comment.

I love the way you can use a phrase like "People who live in %" using the regular Drupal profile module and then by clicking the link, get a list of all users who live in %. I'm trying to get the same thing happening with profiles as nodes. I've tried using CCK taxonomy fields in both the Node Profiles and the Bio Modules. It almost works, but only intermittantly. Sometimes I get the message "There are currently no posts in this category ..." other times, some users will show up and others won't - even when they have been tagged with the the term.
