5. ability for journal writer to decide if they do not want replies to a specific entry
6. restrict the length of journal entries to match the number of characters allowed in normal posts (or allow a separate maximum length for journal area)
7. ability for people to convert from other journals/blogs and transfer all of their material to the message board's journal area (I know it is crazy request, but people always ask for it)

I've adjusted the items to be numeric so I could more easily respond to 'm

1) good idea, I've not yet included that
2) already planned for that. Tachy C will apply to my Journal System as well, ignored users will appear the same way as they do in posts;
3) planned in my version: new usergroup permissions:
- Can View Journals;
- Can Have Journal(s);
- Can Comment on Journals;
4) already planned for it 'cept I don't have Journal Moderators, the permissions are just in sync with Admin and Super Moderator permissions. Admin can close (locked but visible) and disable (locked and invisible) journals, delete them, edit them, etc. S-mods can lock and optionally disable, but not delete nor edit.
5) already in my system as well
6) good idea, I'll implement a separate setting (plenty of cases where you don't want posts and journals to be limited to the same amount);
7) this is not just a crazy request, it's also a near-impossible task. The problem is that we can't write an import-script for such things, simply because we won't have access to the database, only to the final output (the html pages). Since virtually Every online journal site allows users to totally customize their display, this can be a completely impossible thing to automate, thus you'd have to do manual copy-pasting after all..
