Questions / Notes
- Pixtur What about an advanced importer:
- Discussions have to be linked to comment-hierarchies.
- Phases have to be converted to task-folders with the phase's tasks attached to it
- probably the user-passwords are not working since the process of cookie creation probably differs
- This importer probably would not be too hard to implement, but where can I add it to the code?
ideas about importing XML
excerpt from http://www.streber-pm.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8&highlight=xml :
An importer from netOffice would definetely be cool, but the database-schemes are very different. I already thought about a automatic XML-importer that will grep as much as possible. With this we could write an XML-Dumper for netOffice and have a flexible way for transfering data. Later we could also write Dumpers for mantis and phpCollab Wink And we could also write a dumper for the streber-database to have an additional backup-solution.
