I thought you were trying to use the XML dumps from JIRA. > Had that done the night you were asking on > infrastructure that we leave Maven on codehaus because you didn't want to > move at the time. > Because no one gave me a heads up until after the fact which annoyed me greatly. There are actually questions you chose not to answer which I asked you directly when the situation arose i.e. that you thought it within the purview of infrastructure to move Maven issues simply because Maven is an Apache project without having to consult the people involved in the project. If it makes it easier just take our install wholus bolus with an unmassaged dump and I'm sure you can remove what's necessary when you're done. But I didn't realize you were using the raw SQL, I thought you were using the xml import/export thing. > When tested all of the features, we found problems in the migration, which > Jeff wanted to look into.
