Hi.

I believe that the errors that end in 

  Failed to fetch http://livejournal.com/interface/xmlrpc

such as this one does, indicates a failure to communicate from the
livejournal2blogger application to LiveJournal.  I see this happen a few times
everyday.  I'm not sure of the root cause to these failures, but would you 
please
attempt to convert your blog again?  Can you always produce this error?

I now see these errors quite often in the logs for the hosted application.

I'll try to address this issue by fetching fewer posts/comments at a time, 
instead of
all of them at once.  In researching the problem, the actual cause of the fault 
is a
DeadlineExceededException meaning that the request to LiveJournal is timing out.

If anyone experiences these errors using the Python scripts, please update this 
issue
with the experience.
