llvm dev - Nov 2021 - Update on Bugzilla migration

Dear All,

Here is the status update: the test migration was attempted. First set
of show-stoppers was identified, the majority of them are the
limitations on GitHub side. We are working on circumventing them,
however, there is no ETA yet.

I will keep you informed as soon as new information will be available.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Dear Fellow LLVMers,

I believe we were able to work-around the majority of GitHub
deficiencies (at least those that were show-stoppers). We are checking
the results. Hopefully I will be able to return to you with the final
migration roadmap soon.

Stay tuned!

Dear All,

Over the weekend we tried to perform a "dry-run" migration –
conversion of all 51k+ bugzilla issues to a temporary GitHub project.

Unfortunately, the migration failed due to some obscure error at the
GitHub side. So far, GitHub is unable to tell us what the problem is,
how to solve / workaround it and how to proceed with the migration
(not to say, how to prevent similar issues during the real migration).
So far this is the real show-stopper.

We will continue pushing, however, I do not have any ETA on when we
will be able to continue with the bugzilla migration.

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but sometimes things are beyond my control.
