Manual import of all data might be the easiest.

There is already a python script for 2.0->2.1 conversion.

But I suggest doing a bootstrap and just add the user objects using
slapcat+editing+slapadd

Done by bootstrap.

You can configure the layout, searchfor hashimapspool in 1st.README

Yes (very long time ago), no (except above).
