How to import data

Use the tools/load_data.php. Example data is in the data directory. This data is in the question answer (QA) format, so you might want to modify the code if you want to tag non-QA data.

How to add admin users

No easy process for this at the moment except for adding a flag to the user in the user table of the database.
