I'm not sure that just abandoning the issues in Bugzilla is a good idea without at least trying to follow up with the person who submitted the issue. Some of the issues may still be valid and we certainly don't want to abandon those. How much effort would it be to try to either validate or

Thanks for the links Jesse. Aaron, Evan, could you two take a look to see how feasible these tools are? Does GitHub provide some sort of sandbox where you can play with imports? I'll try to get a previous Bugzilla dump to you guys so you can play around with it. Aaron, I realize I still owe

I spoke with Vladimir briefly on IRC and he recommends that we just move to GitHub Issues, reason being it works better with the GitHub workflow (as Alex Dean also mentioned in his email). I am okay with this, as long as we take the effort to go through bugzilla.ganglia.info and close out

The integration between github issues and the general github workflow (linking of issues to pull requests, etc) is pretty nice to work with. I think we'll have fewer problems with the bug-tracker being out of sync with the real state of the code if we use github. alex On May 11, 2012, at 7:44

This is our request for help. We need someone to take charge of managing our documentation making sure they are up to date and in one canonical location. We'll also need someone to help with importing the bugs in Bugzilla to GitHub Issues. We definitely have to abandon bugzilla? Can we

+1 for sticking with bugzilla. If we can move it to somewhere that is more maintainable, that would be better. But I would hate to just abandon everything there. Brad On 5/10/2012 at 10:01 AM, in message ca+3xn_lykk8gveq0itiak980t7w4hk+awrpy0fk39bvhgpg...@mail.gmail.com, Bernard Li

FWIW, the guys at github are eager to assist people with bulk importing of issues via their json issue format. And they have been trying to encourage people to write export tools for bugzilla and other services/software. I'd be a fan of moving from bugtracker to github just for the one-stop

To be honest, I don't really have a strong opinion either way. At the same time I haven't used GitHub Issues so I cannot comment on its usability versus Bugzilla. Currently we have two options: 1) Migrate bugzilla.ganglia.info to another server which is more maintainable 2) Migrate all the

Whatever/whoever does it, I think we should make sure a data dump is always available. Is there any issue tracker that keeps data with the repo itself? As for bugzilla, I thought about installing it on a vm, but I found that Debian has discontinued support for the package, is it the best option

Dear Ganglia Community: For those who have used Ganglia for at least two years you should have witnessed a shift in development from SourceForge to GitHub. This transition benefited the project as it encourages more users to contribute code and patches. A side effect to this, however, is that
