Ok, didn't know such a script existed :)
With that it's possible to use BUILD as new name, we just have to do it
for the whole grimoire before integrating everything, which will halt
spell updates and bugfixes for a bit. I think if we all work together we
can do it in one or two days, i definitely don't want a rush to just
convert and submit the whole grimoire, this should be carefully checked
(even if the script is bulletproof, i like to stay on the safe side).
So imho the best option for the conversion of spell format would be a
script that takes a section or a list of spells, p4 opens all it needs
and does the changes, but doesn't submit. So people could just say on
the channel that they're taking a section (so there's no overlap), run
the script on that section, then check it with p4 diff and submit if
it's alright.
I realize this seems more complicated than just a script that does
everything, but i really don't want _any_ spell to get broken by this,
we have enough work fixing bugs without generating new ones ourself :)
