As we have to(?) stick with Redmine (rather then moving to github) and try update/upgrade the platform I strongly believe that we should do a deep cleanup of our Redmine instance *before* upgrading. This would include close all subprojects (asking kindly to plugin authors to move on to github, as many have already done) and -in my opinion- all the tickets (at least the bug ones) that are years that are untouched/not updated: I really can't see any advantage in keeping open tickets that is clear now that no one will ever look at, and no one (even the users) seems to be bothered by. If some of them is really important this will naturally be reopened. If they are not they can serve as reference, but closed, eventually with a specific text stating the reason why it was closed. > I think (Juergen?) that we actually were confident enough that with some > hours of work (and Juergens Perl-magic) we were able to move the old db > to a new RedMine instance. > > I cannot do this alone, but if Juergen is in Essen and free for half a > day I think we should bite the bullet. sounds like a plan? not sure if I can help with the above process, but I could certainly with the cleaning before the update/upgrade. looking for some consensus here, hopefully before Essen. thanks -- G -- _______________________________________________ Qgis-developer mailing list [email protected] List info: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer Unsubscribe: https://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-developer
