Hi All

> [QGIS-Developer] Last call for switching to github issue tracker

Given our history on the topic, I doubt very much this is true :-P

Actually this is not true (correct me if I am wrong PSC): the PSC was against 
two things:

1) losing all history in issue manager. I think this is reasonable since there 
is a lot of very useful history in the issue tracker and it was felt that a 
'clean slate start ‘ would be a disservice to all those who have raised issues 
in the past.
2) calling for a migration without a fully tested, fully fleshed out plan to 
manage the migration from start to finish. This means someone taking 
responsibility for the *whole* process which so far hasn’t been forthcoming.

In Essen we voted against migrating to GitHub issues (even though many of use 
were in favour of to idea) because of these reasons. If items 1 and 2 above can 
be resolved, I don’t think you will find too much resistance from the PSC 
(though I will let other PSC members speak for themselves if this is the case 
or not).


@sandro: the wiki markup of GitHub is Markdown (an open format) which is widely 
used in many places so it is definitely a re-useable skill beyond GitHub. The 
converse is true for Redmine’s markup language which seems pretty arcane after 
using Markdown.
