I prefer option 3.  It's more work but will be very helpful to have all tickets
in one place.  I have pretty good knowledge of all the tickets and can be the
one to sort out which to move and which to keep on SF.

As far as the technical work to do a move, we can export all the data using the
APIs.  And we can write an import utility which handles the Allura api/export
format (which would be good to do anyway).  Many usernames wouldn't match up,
and would have to be changed to "anonymous" or create a stub user in Allura (my
preference).  Cross-references (to wiki pages, chat logs, SF site-support
tickets, etc) would break.

How does that sound?  Any other suggestions?
From a product feature perspective, having a simple way to export your tickets from a project and import them into another Allura instance seems really important, so, thinking of this not as a one-time migration but as an actual feature ... is this possible from the Data Export feature ( http://sourceforge.net/blog/project-data-export/) ?
