LDM Users: I am trying to document progress regarding the conversion of GS-3

  as to the progress of the conversion and also the progress regarding
  the software which converts to the new format?...Thanks!

There is no effort underway at Unidata to create software to do what you want.  
There is a publically available package of graphics conversion utilities, 
called netpbm, that most people are using.  you can get the package via 
anonymous FTP from:

        ftp.cs.ubc.ca
        ftp/archive/netpbm

Beyond that, I don't know of any other way to do it.
