I think you have selective hearing. :-)

What I said:

The guys at SourceForge say there's isn't a way to do it (at least,
not now) and they had the ticket open for over a year. SourceForge
even pulled in a developer to look at the request. They said they'd
need to write a program to do all the cross-mapping of the fields to
put it in a format the Trackers would understand.

No, they don't have a way to import data into the SF Trackers.
Crafting a "data file which can be imported by SF" to get SourceForge
to "accept tracker data in some file format" isn't likely. I had this
ticket open for over a year, trying to finagle some way to get them to
import our data. I was willing to partially fund a developer, and
reminded them how this would be a great selling point for SF to other
projects that used bugzilla, to migrate to the SF Trackers.

By all means, open your own support request with them. The last guy I
worked with on the ticket (who eventually informed me that their
management decided that importing from bugzilla to the SF Trackers
wasn't on their priority list) was Jacob Moorman. He should tell you
the same thing.



In the meantime, I'm going to go through some of the still-open bugs
to see if any of them can be closed. I realized this morning as I was
going through the bugs that #1869 was identified as a bug in the
application, not in EMM386, but was never closed.

I'm curious how many of those 85 still-open bugs are still valid after
FreeDOS 1.0. :-)
