Alright, I'm in the process of trying to move data over to YAF from PHPBB. I've started this process by modifying some of the scripts that can be found here and elsewhere, but they are a bit out of date, so I'm in the process of modifying them. First up is moving Users and I have some questions I hope someone can answer.

First off, ProviderUserKey. What is the best way to derive that value? I presume it varies from user to user or there'd be no need for it per User row.

Second, I understand I'll have to generate new passwords for users. Is there a routine within YAF that would allow me to do this?

Finally, are there any fields in particular that I need to be aware of that need special handling?

As always, any and all help appreciated.
