Re: [sane-devel] [janitorial] Alioth Tracker Item → GitLab Issue

Hi all,

A couple of days ago on sane-devel, I wrote:

I've been able to pull all but two of the Tracker Items we have at
Alioth with the code I pushed to

  https://gitlab.com/sane-project/tracker-migration

The two issues that I have not been able to pull (so far) are both on
the Bugs tracker (310605 and 311568).  For some reason the connection
resets.

Anyway, I have HTML pages and attachments for all 1634 other items.
Next on the agenda is figuring out how to get this on GitLab ;-)

Oh, I'll be monitoring the Alioth Trackers for changes every now and
then.  There's no way to make them read-only :-(

Hope this helps,

Rob, I am sorry to hear this. Martin maintained our Dutch translation,
and provided support on this mailing list for more than a decade. He
was a consistent, dependable contributor, who gave of his time to
improve our little corner of the world. Our condolences to you and
your family.
