I spent a weekend working on porting the issues to github. https://github.com/ddale/mpl-issues contains an xml dump of the sourceforge tracker, along with the script I used to parse the dump file, filter it, and upload the issues to that repo. It could be improved to add labels, assign to developers, assign milestones, once github provides API access to issues-2.0. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Forrester Wave Report - Recovery time is now measured in hours and minutes not days.
