Migrating from uTorrent

I'm migrating from uTorrent to Deluge, would like to move my old torrents and files without redownloading eveything. Is there a guide, or can someone point me in the right direction?
So far this looks like a better solution, as uTorrent has gotten bloated and frequently hogs all the CPU time.
I am using Windows XP SP3 by the way.
Thanks...

This is definitely possible.

It'd require a client script that parses uTorrent's resume.dat.

http://dev.deluge-torrent.org/wiki/Development has all the info needed to get started... it'd probably be nice if the script had two components, one that parses resume.dat into a universal go-between, and then another that adds all the torrents to deluge, that way writing the same for other clients would be "half" the work.
