I'm not too familiar with TWiki -- does it have a feature or option
to export your existing pages into files or something that could
be easily processed?  If so, I could see about implementing something
that could then convert those into PmWiki-compatible formats.

I've done something similar in the past for UseMod wiki pages, and
it mostly works, although there are often some things that don't
map exactly (for UseMod, subpages don't have an exact mapping;
for TWiki there might be some issues with the hierarchical structure
that TWiki uses).
