Session Overview
The migrate module provides a flexible framework for migrating content into Drupal from other sources (e.g., when converting a web site from another CMS to Drupal). Out-of-the-box, support for creating core Drupal objects such as nodes, users, files, terms, and comments are included - it can easily be extended for migrating other kinds of content. The power comes from an object oriented API that's tricky to get started with - We'll walk through the various classes in the module and how they work together to manage migrations.

I wouldn't label this as Intermediate
Like many other aspects of dealing with Drupal, once you get it, it's probably not too difficult, but getting it is the part that's difficult. With the Migrate module and its all-code, OOP interface, it's difficult to get.

Thank you :)
Thank you to everyone that was able to make it out to the presentation (it was early in the morning). I've uploaded the slides (we need to configure out session formatting to eventually show the slide and screencast links) - you can currently view the slides at https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1UBVIsQMJ1LNQL9r9A8CsyZwiRZnUhPWw...
Enjoy the camp!
