The Project

At my former company Archwave we decided to replace the ancient bugzilla installations (2.20 and 2.22) with a more modern bug tracking tool - we decided to go with redmine.

A quick google on how-to-migrate-from-bugzilla-to-redmine revealed two database migration scripts. One written in PHP (mentioned here), the other in Ruby ( here).

For me, the Ruby-script did a good job. But since we required to add some tweaks to the migration script (and nobody was aware of ruby), I decided to port it to a language I can handle properly and went for Python.

The Download

The resulting Pyhton script can be downloaded here:
