You sum up my position too!
I can't see a reason to convert to JAR before July until the IMC migration issue is resolved.
Ah BUT - the Catch 22 is that the CAA says it will not be issuing any more JAR licences after 1st July 2012. And it seems that IMC ratings cannot be attached to EASA licences. So if we do need a JAR licence to preserve our IMC ratings we have to get one before 1st July 2012.
