Porting OCS contacts over to Jabber

We are moving from Microsoft Office Communicator 2007 R2 to Cisco Jabber.  The bad news is that we were told that contacts in our OCS will not be migrated to Jabber.  We were asked to re-create our contacts in Jabber.  With 100 over contacts to recreate, I started to look for solution which I can do it at the client’s side but without any luck.

But I do notice that Jabber has the function to import contacts from a XML format specified by Jabber.  Below is the XML format.  More information about the XML structure is explained in http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/voice_ip_comm/vxc/english/vxme/9-3_jabber_adv_fg/VXME_BK_A14F54E9_00_advanced-features-guide-for-cisco-jabber/VXME_BK_A14F54E9_00_advanced-features-guide-for-cisco-jabber_chapter_010.html.
