I have two D6 filefields created, one for containing public files and one for private files. The file paths are set to public/[nid] and private/[nid] accordingly.

Now when choose to migrate these filefields to files, the upload destination is set to private only. Why is it not possible to change the upload destination during migration?

same for me,

i even discovered: when the function prepare is reached then the file is allready copied to file_directory_path (in my case sites/default/files).

My expectations: in prepare i can change things like filename, filepath, convert the file (e.g. from bmp to jpeg) … and then after prepare the settings are executed (like all other migration tasks).
