Description

We run TYPO3 4.7, and haven't yet installed the form extension that was introduced in TYPO3 4.6.
The reason for this is that if I install the new form extension (I also included the static TS) all of our 400+ already existing forms disappear from the website. The old form configuration is still in the bodytext field, but the form wizard shows an empty form.

Obviously, the actual form configuration is different for both extensions (thus the empty wizard), which means that the new extension is not backwards compatible. I also could not find any information on how to migrate the old forms.

This wouldn't be much of a problem if the old and new form extension could both run at the same time, and newer forms are created with the new extension. But the new extension replaces the old one, which makes it useless to me without taking the effort to manually migrate 400 forms.

Did I miss something or is this a bug/missing feature?
