Importing Memories

[azurite]

I finally bit the bullet and bought myself a nifty Premium Paid account, so I imported pretty much everything that was importable from LiveJournal to DW. Alas, it looks like Memories are not part of that...or are they? I imported before I bought the account, so I'm wondering if I should re-import in order to get my Memories (category keywords for the memories, and what entries are in those categories), or if

a) that's not even possible; I should do it manually
or
b) it is possible but it'll result in boatloads of duplicates

Anyone know? I tried searching the FAQ, but it just mentions the memory basics, like what they are and such, nothing about importing.

Also, there's no tag about memories here, so... :D

Memories do work on DW, if you care to use them! They just can't refer (technical limit) to posts on services other than the site itself, and LJ offers no way to export them. (We use public data feeds for every other thing that you can import; to get memories, we'd need to screen-scrape, and that gets you banned very quickly.)

So, you can use memories on DW, but you just can't import your memories from elsewhere.
