...until we truly move to Github Issues

What needs to be done in order to make this happen?

A decision needs to be taken on how best to port the Trac issues into github.

This implies that we want to port the Trac issues into Github. This is not a requirement. The 'organic' way to migrate to new things is just to move on. Trac is legacy; leave it in read-only mode so that history is preserved, but there's no need to do anything else.

If we move to GitHub issues, I would rather have all open tickets moved from Trac there. Leaving them open in read-only Trac is not useful, and you can't request the reporters to duplicate the tickets on GitHub.

All open tickets should preferably be in one place.

Why not let individual project / library maintainers decide how to implement the move (or whether they want to move to github issues at all ?)

I think this is a very worthy idea. But I get PRs as well as trac issues. Hmmm is there a way to diable the PR mechanism on git and just link to the trac archive? Robert Ramey
