    I wonder if it's now possible in the v3 products.

    In the v2 products it was only possible from WSS 2.0 to SPS 2003. The reason it was not possible from SPS 2003 to WSS 2.0 was because of the extra functionality available (even if not used) in those SPS 2003 sites.

    I would have thought the same would apply to v3 too, but maybe if you restrict the question to only those sites that are based on common template types (so not Publishing for instance which WSS 3.0 doesn't know about) it might work.

    Does anyone want to test this and come back to us here

    Both Shane and I are assuming that the WSS the questioner is asking about as the target of these sites is WSS *3.0* by the way !

    I haven't tried it but I am pretty sure you can use stsadm.exe -o import and export. I wrote a blog on the commands here http://msmvps.com/blogs/shane/archive/2006/11/14/consolidating-site-collections-after-upgrading-sharepoint.aspx
