AA Miles transfers to Hilton HHonors to end Aug 2011 - exception ended Jul 2012

According to our Community Director (who does use Hilton - we ran into each other at the Hilton Bucharest!) the opportunity to transfer AA miles to HH is coming to an end. You can read the thread on the Hilton HHonors Forum, or merely understand from the excerpts below:

And the only option I see on the redeemaamiles.com site is to move AA miles to Diners Club.

Further, when I went to http://webflyer.com/programs/mileage_converter/, it only showed conversion via Diners Club.
