Document or link for step to step migration from vanilla to Cuberite

I'd like to switch from vanilla Minecraft server to Cuberite but I didn't found any migration guide for my servers and worlds, neither did I found any note to know if that was even possible.

Best regards.

This would be a good idea to add to the manual:

In theory migration is possible, cuberite and vanilla use the same world data format. However, I don't believe it is generally a good idea to encourage migration, with a map reset being a better idea in the majority of cases.

I believe that user data is not persisted, and neither is spawn point between the two implementations. Moreover, the world generation algorithm differs between Cuberite and vanilla, so any migrated world will have ugly areas where old and new generated land are side-by-side.

For the time being you can find it in the FAQ: https://forum.cuberite.org/thread-1596.html

any migrated world will have ugly areas where old and new generated land are side-by-side. this is also the case when Mojang changes the world gen in a new version of Minecraft, so it's not that big of an issue.

A bit off-topic: it would be nice if there was a migration tool that changes the user data and spawnpoint to the format that Cuberite uses. That would make the move to Cuberite a lot easier.

Thanks for the link.
As I see it, there's currently no way to migrate user data (xp, achievements and items), is that right?
