Hi everybody,

our current bugtracker bugs.owncloud.org works less than optimal as we all 
know. We had several discussion on the mailinglist on irc and in personal about 
options to improve this and I think all the options are on the table. I think 
we need a solution because it is difficult to work with and people are 
complaining.

github has a simple but nice issue tracker and it is also nicely integrated so 
the idea was and is to move to it. We don´t have a lock-in effect there because 
they have nice import and export APIs. Thomas even wrote a very great migration 
script :-)

The problem is that we lose the user accounts when we move the existing issues 
over and urls to the old bugs won´t work anymore.

So what we now do is this:

We will keep the old bugtracker bugs.owncloud.org for the old bugs but I will 
disable the option to add new bugs. Existing bugs can still be updated and 
closed.
New bugs can be added on github. I even saw recently that other project do it 
exactly like that too.
So it can´t be that wrong ;-)


This seems to be the best option for now and I hope that works for everybody.


Frank
