Move issues from SourceForge tracker to Github

Open lkoe opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

Part of the activities to migrate the project from SF is to move issues (bugs, feature requests). If possible conversations in the old tickets should be replicated.

The most recent automated tool I found is https://github.com/cmungall/gosf2github. However, I never used that myself, so I'm not sure how well the original conversion and authors are still readable. Generally, all of the new tickets will have yourself as the author.

I referenced the wrong issue in my commit, therefore re-opening.

I've come to the conclusion that I don't want to do this by myself. Although people took the time to originally report the problem, which is appreciated, I value my own time as well. Thus I will be closing all tickets over at SF with an appropriate comment to open a new bug/rfe here, if so desired. Disagreement or offers to volunteer are still welcome, until the deed is done.

Seems reasonable, even if it puts additional effort on the original reporters. The benefit of this approach is a very healthy cleaning of no more reproducable or nor more important issues...

could be closed as a decision has been made to not put more effort into it.
