Hey yeah, totally sensible question - wish I had a better answer. Unfortunately there isn't a great way to transfer an ongoing campaign. That's one of the main issues with getting folks to try out new virtual tabletops - there's some pretty established platforms already out there and there's a fair amount of lock in. Especially if you consider the assets a lot of DMs have purchased on those platforms, like you mentioned.

But I'm hoping eventually Diceright will have enough 'killer features' that people will give it a shot anyway. Would be great if you guys would consider it once you finish your current campaign. Thanks!

There is a converter from Roll20 to FoundryVTT. I've used it with great success:

I can vouch for this one as well. I ported a massive homebrewed campaign over to Foundry with this and couldn't be happier to be rid of Roll20.

The VTTES plugin for Firefox/Chrome allows for importing/exporting between OrcPub/DungeonMastersVault, Foundry, and roll20 formats.

Worth checking out if you could support one of those as an import target.
