  Yesterday, I began the migration of my Knol to Annotum. On this progress page (https://signup.wordpress.com/signup/?knol=true&blog_id=39909909), there are 8 steps which are supported supposed to turn green as they are completed. After a day, they are still all grey. I did receive an authorization request for access to my Google id, which I allowed. However, even that first step seems to not have completed.

  Is there something that I am supposed to be doing or is the problem within the automated process?

  Unfortunately, Google shut down Knol on April 30th, and the migration period to WordPress.com has ended.

  I believe you can still contact Google to retrieve a copy of your Knol, but this will be an archived copy which we have no way to import.

  Thanks for the reply. I was able to download the archive. But Google and WP sites that I read gave me the impression that the migration path was still available until October. Drat.
