I have close to 37,000 flexinodes in 4.7. I am assuming I will either create a custom content type or convert to CCK, but either way, I don't really think I can expect anyone to do it for me.
I haven't played with CCK yet beecause flexinode is installed. A fresh Drupal install is also out because my host supplies only one MySQL database - I suppose I am going to have to do a heap of testing on a non-work server.
I think I will be able to keep the node table as-is (except $node->type) and run a Perl script to map the old flexinode table to CCK without changing any node IDs to preserve commenting and taxonomies.
Or is it not that simple?
