If, like OP, you are concerned about the closed nature of Roam, you could make that converter instead of a replacement for Roam.
You could say openness is “a feature, not a product”, and it’s a feature that could be retrofitted.

You seem adamant, that the former is a better path, but I don't quite see why would you do all that work for naught. (Roam already broke my backup script 2 times, and there are better uses of my time than interfacing with a proprietary product, if there are better alternatives.)
- Grustaf 6y agoI'd say a parser is an order of magnitude less work, but if someone wants to make a full product I'm not going to try to stop them.
