Hi Ron, Xuedong,
I wonder how many other sites would be interested in a tool
to convert "adl" files from EDD to EDM? Are many sites considering
upgrading to this new display manager? I would certainly be
interested...
It's difficult to get a feel for how many sites use:
edd/dm
medm
edm - I guess at the moment, this is mainly the SNS project?
We've always used "edd/dm" but feel perhaps it's time to move on.
Cheers,
Andy

The colors are wrong, but simple comparison of native MEDM to the EDD .ADL file show you how to fix them. There may even be a passable DM to MEDM converter which does more.
