Existing members bridge?

I've just installed this, and it appears to be working just fine. I do have a question regarding existing members. I have a list of over 200 members in the smf database. Is there a way to use the existing member information for mambo?

As your SMF members login to the bridge, they will be migrated over to Mambo.

I have been meaning to ask for a while - is there any way to automatically migrate SMF users into Mambo?

If I sit and wait for people to login, it could take forever. And for certain things, such as my newsletter, it would be good to have everybody registered with Mambo asap.

Not while preserving their passwords. Mambo's encryption works in SMF, but SMF's encryption does not work in Mambo. So, the only time an unencrypted password is available is the moment of login.
