It seems like similar questions have been asked in these forums, but, I think this is slightly different than the other ones and I really haven't seen a good answer to it, so, here goes...

We currently have an existing ASP.NET application that we want to migrate to DNN.  Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we need to move it piece-by-piece (or function-by-function however you want to look at it).  And, we would like to leverage the current (DNN 6.0) version of the membership, roles and profile providers in our existing application while we are moving to DNN.  I seem to have the membership provider working, but, I am having one of those 'what is the best way to do this' moments in regards to the roles and profile providers.

So, my questions are:

1. Should I create a custom provider for roles and profile providers leveraging code from the DNN core?  Has anyone else done this?
2. Or can/should I leverage the DNN assemblies for these?  I'm very interested to know if this is even possible (just using the assemblies, updating web.config, etc.)??

I would love to know if you were able to get this to work and how.
