Here are some updates from dev on our slack channel:

morning all, good news the data from the scan yesterday was imported into the wallet and created a first block with all of the transactions going to right place, this effectively turned a approx 3 gig block chain into a 54kb block chain and means we will have the new chain with old privkeys as we wanted

Now we just need to get the freaking exchanges to cooperate.

well we do want to test a bit more, im away for just over a week now (will be checking messages and emails periodically) so will test more today and when i get back then we can give them all a block number to swap from, so the wallet will be ready for the end of the month, then we best give exchanges 2 weeks notice so we can make sure it goes without a hitch

nobody can use or even have the new wallet until the first block date

otherwise the wallet amounts will be out of sync
