Graffiti To BlogML Exporter

Ever since I started working on an option to switch my site's backend over, and off GraffitiCMS I ran into the issue of getting my data OUT. While Graffiti uses the BlogML standard for Importing it doesn't support it for Exporting. When I made the switch to the BlogEngine.Net backend I decided I needed to write my own Exporter. With that I plugged away at a simple .Net Windows App to do just that. It worked "good enough" for me and I had a number of others asking me about it. I've been sending them out a Zip file but since I'm lazy, and not always at my PC I figured I'd put it up on the site for you to grab.

There are a couple issues to take into account.
1) This is source...so you'll need to compile it to run it.
2) Some of the values are hard-coded for my site, mostly because Graffiti didn't expose them.
3) It's setup for the VistaDB database, which was the default in Graffiti. If you are using SQL you'll need to tweak it.

If you have any issues feel free to shoot me a line.
