There are migrations scripts doing most conversions needed.

The trail will appear as soon as you've created an account and logged
in. If it does not, check your user preferences and enable it.

You don't. :)

We maybe will have some purge policy in some future moin version (that
also revisions files items), but for now the policy is just that we
don't care.

In the age of Terabyte hard disks, storing 100 (or 1000 or 10000)
revisions with a few KByte each doesn't matter much.

Sorry, I don't use GD.

If you have huge amounts of stuff in moin, you can enable xapian based
indexed search within moin.
