you do not have to -- nifti.NiftiImage used by PyMVPA is capable of
reading analyze files. It is just that NIfTI is better ;-)

you can use FSL's fslchfiletype, or probably any other modern fMRI
processing suite has its own ability to convert.

so everything depends on the tools you have in your hands ;)

correct

so often in the comments/text we refer to it to be '4D'
