I wrote on how to write new QMP commands using the QAPI (docs/writing-qmp-commands.txt), going from there to a conversion shouldn't be difficult, but I can write a wiki page. Btw, counting with a series I haven't posted yet, we have less than 10 QMP commands left to be converted to the QAPI. I expect to start working on HMP conversions in January.
