So how would we proceed?

Bugs: Do we pick a date where we disable new bug submissions on the current tracker and point towards gitlab? Are old bug transferred after some ruthless trimming - I don't think this can be automated...

Do we want to try to move bugs to Gitlab or we start Gitlab bug database from scratch? I personally fine with either case but if we choose the latter option then bugs.archlinux.org should stay available read-only as an archive of the discussions.

Perhaps we should have a read-only archive (redirects to the Wayback Machine?) regardless. We have all those references in our package commits and elsewhere (eg. a PR I made just today to an outside project). -- Best, Daniel https://danielcapella.com
