Comment (by gaba):

 thanks!

 There are a few blockers (from network team people) about this migration:

 1) ticket number preservation

 They want to not have collition between trac ticket numbers and gitlab
 issue numbers. That would mean to have new numbers for new tickets when
 starting to use gitlab officially.

 2) add all tickets (including closed ones)

 They want to have ALL tickets from trac in gitlab to preserve the history
 of Tor in one place.

 3) get all info from each ticket into an issue (including comments in the
 trac ticket addded as a 'trac user' to the gitlab issue)

 This would mean to have each comment from each trac ticket as a comment in
 the gitlab issue. The possible solution would be to have a 'trac user' in
 gitlab that is the one making all the comments that are being migrated
 from trac.



 If we are including this 3 points in the migration then we do not need to
 archive trac and it could be decomission once the migration is complete.
