I think it would be way more work to copy all valid issues by hand than just import all *open* issues from Bugzilla to JIRA and evaluate them later. Moving manually will probably lose votes, comments, and maybe other valuable information.

We could move all issues over. Many of the issues are old or out of date or irrelevant, i.e., for features that are no longer there, etc. It would be a massive task for someone to, once the issues are moved, evaluate all of them. It's certainly doable. A different approach is to create issues from scratch, i.e., the issues we create in Apache NetBeans JIRA from scratch will be issues that the Apache NetBeans community cares about, versus heaps of issues in the Oracle NetBeans Bugzilla that maybe no one in Apache NetBeans will be concerned about but that would need to be evaluated anyway if we were to migrate everything over to Apache NetBeans JIRA. We could back up the Bugzilla issues somewhere and refer to them or link to them as needed in Apache NetBeans JIRA. Anyway, multiple approaches and if we can't agree on a specific way forward we could vote on it. Gj
