Howdy,

In the ESC meeting yesterday the question of including the Migration
Assistant (MA) feature by default in the pending 6.3 release finished with
a decision to do so with one update the UI. Which would show the user a
link, on the dialog box which starts the process, to a wiki page with
detailed information on what was possible with MA presently and information
on how to perform a migration with or without use of the MA tool.

Caolán McNamra was quick about setting up the code for that URL link (Thank
you!) and provisionally used a URL for the wiki page of:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/MigrateFromHSQLDB

That location makes sense IMO. Currently that page doesn't exist.

There was a page started for the migration assistant a while back at
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/FirebirdMigration I think
it would be best to retire that page, replaced by the new page under
Documentation/How To. It could be raided for some content of course, but
there isn't much there by way of a How To/Tutroial style anyway.

The new page will be setup to take advantage of the MediaWiki translation
extension. ( got some info on setting that up yesterday on IRC).

I thought about top level categories for the new page, which you can see
here https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/User:Drew/tmpMA

That is about it for this email which was mostly to kick this off and get
some wisdom and feedback form the team.

Best wishes,

Drew
