Check out Onepulse.com (and TFS Data Manager). These guys are addressing this
very use case. They are working on back-up, migration, multi-server management
with selective restore/migration of individual work items.
I know these guys and they do good work and are closely coordinated with Msft
(and know the shortcomings of this Msft tool)
However, I checked with them and the features you need are due in the v1.6
release in about a month.
Keep an eye out for it

Subject: RE: [OzTFS] Work Item Migration
Just so you know, we have actually spent a lot of time and had a lot of
problems with this tool. Particularly with migrating projects that have been
branched. If you look at Codeplex one of the first things it talks about it is
when not to use this tool. That doesn’t mean it might not work well for you, as
the results at times seem somewhat inconsistent. It may work very well given
the correct conditions
So yeah it’s probably worth a look but my advice would be if you start to have
problems with it, I wouldn’t spend all of your time trying to diagnose the
problem.

Adam,
Take a look at the TFS to TFS Migration Tool:

<http://www.codeplex.com/tfstotfsmigration>
Be aware though that the work items will get new work item IDs.

Subject: [OzTFS] Work Item Migration
Hi,
I am currently in the process of cleaning up and logically rearranging our TFS
2005 Source Control.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to migrate Work Items from one TFS 2005
project to another on the same server?
