For http://www.dreamwidth.org/support/faqbrowse?faqid=86 could have a line that importing from the same journal twice will only import new entries/comments/friendsgroups/tags, etc, and not duplicate the existing ones.

wow cool! is that true? [silly question, i know, but is this a tweak of the importer? it didn't work that way in May...]

Yup, we only import entries or comments we haven't seen before. Unfortunately this means we can't see edits (yet)

We had two bugs which resulted in duplication: crossposts getting imported as new entry, and (IIRC) duplicating imports in some circumstances. Both are fixed now though! (And the first is already documented).
