This makes sense indeed. Atul was thinking of copying over 'manually'
the best/most recent ones. I have no idea of what makes more sense, I
guess it depends on the quantity of questions that are worth moving over.

Atul: what do you think?

I advice strongly against this. LP has a pretty bad UI, mandates a LP
login, the product is probably not going to be developed further and
most of all using different tools will split a nascent community of
users now that we're increasing the efforts to strengthen it. Let's move
the good content to Ask and use that.
