And a testament to that is that I've starting working on an ePub2IMP conversion utilty, much along the same lines as my Mobi2IMP (it will have the same look and feel).
However, whatever I may produce (and finally release) will be short lived as the next release of eBook Publisher (the software from eBooktechnologies.com that facilitates the actual creation of the .imp format) WILL support the loading and saving of .epub ebooks. I just don't know WHEN they will be releasing it.
I have already MANUALLY been able to convert your (calibre produced) .epub ebooks to .imp as well as those finely hand-crafted .epub's by Jellby. There are a few incompatiblities that I'm trying to iron out (on the .imp making side) and will post my findings soon to the EPUB forum.
Personally speaking, I think .epub is here to stay, but the tools that make/support it will evolve into better quality ones as time goes on.
