I tend to think along these lines. There should possibly be a SI2Maya or SI2Modo etc list to help people make the transition over the coming years. I would think Autodesk would have an official Si2Maya list that they have people on as part of the migration. But that would be if they actually gave a damn. That way people can talk about specifically how to do something in a new package that they could do in SI. We can all bitch together that way too.
