Unfortunately, the plugin does not seem to work with LJ itself anymore. However, it is easy to modify it, so that it works with other LJ-based web sites, such as dreamwidth. In turn, dreamwidth supports fully functioning import from LJ. I have modified the plugin to support thrid-party LJ-based sites, and you can use it to import from, for example, dreamwidth. Since I haven’t understood, how to commit my changes here, I have made a modified plugin available on my github. Please google for “github asapegin livejournal-importer” (links are not allowed in the reviews).
