Trac to Bugzilla Migration?

Question

Any tips, scripts, or other artifacts that will make importing data from a Trac instance into a Bugzilla instance less work?

We have a modified Bugzilla, so it's likely that importxml.cgi won't be a good choice. Even if that were available, then the problem becomes "how to map Trac data to Bugzilla data."

As icky as it might be, I think we're going to have to do a database-to-database migration with some mapping tables on the side. Yuck.

Any help is appreciated!

Ok, I gotta ask: "Why?" I'm curious to know what you need from Bugzilla that Trac doesn't provide... — retracile

Our Bugzilla is heavily customized and has a lot of data. We're importing a small Trac database, so the question isn't whether to go with Trac or Bugzilla. The question is how best to seamlessly import the information from that Trac to our Bugzilla. — David M

Max Kanat-Alexander has just committed a migrate.pl to Bugzilla's HEAD. He's written an importer for GNATS, but we'll work with him on adding a Trac capability too.
