bugzilla import
Hi,

I'm playing with trac and tried an inital import from bugzilla. I know
that trac does not support multiple products. This isn't a big problem
in the short run. But, I would like to keep the "Product" information
from bugzilla and I have seen, that you can make a list of product to
keyword mapping.

Is there any reason not to build the trac component name with a "/"
seperated list of bugzilla product and component like:

Program1/MainComponent
Program2/MainComponent

This would also allow to move components with equal names to trac.

Best regards
Dirk

I see no obvious reason why this wouldn't work.

If you're using trunk, or planning to migrate to 0.8 when it's released
(I hope soon), you can also use custom ticket fields:

(yeah, it needs better documentation).

Cheers, Chris

This sounds reasonable. But then I could not import multiple equal named
componets from bugzilla like MainModule in my previous example. And the
solution with the path seperator gives also a clear visual feedback to
the user.

Thanks for the answer.
