No, because one of the comms is a research comm -- posts there are
purposefully made for use for future reference purposes (sort of an "LJ
wiki" for the topic, that makes ANY sense...). If people have to go to two
different comms to try to find the answer to their question, then they
won't. If I can't import all the posts from that comm to a DW version, then
the DW comm is de facto worthless no matter how I set posting access for the
LJ version.   :(

This is a major deal breaker for me. It will keep me tied to LJ as a comm
maintainer no matter where I put my personal journals, and then why would I
move my personal journals if I'm still having to hang out at LJ anyway?
Dang.
