[wp-hackers] link export

[Johannes Ruthenberg]

Hi everyone!

Just a short question: Is there a particular reason why the export 
funtion does export posts, pages, categories... but not the links 
(blogroll)? I noticed this when I exported my content from my old test 
blog and imported it to my new blog. I then had to copy the already 
entered links manually (which is possible with five or ten links, but 
rather unrealistic with more than that). Just using a database dump is 
not always an option when moving content between different versions of 
WordPress.

So I'm wondering if excluding the links from the export was a conscious 
decision?! After all they are content like any post or category.

Greetings,
Johannes
