Last week Cucumber moved from http://github.com/aslakhellesoy/cucumber to
http://github.com/cucumber/cucumber
This week tickets are moving from
https://rspec.lighthouseapp.com/projects/16211-cucumber/tickets to
https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/issues

After discussing with Matt Wynne we decided not to automate the migration
from Lighthouse to Github. The main reason is that we cannot create Github
tickets on behalf of other people, and maintaining proper markup (and
authorship) of ticket threads is also somewhat tricky. Instead we'll rely on
the community to pick the tickets they care about and create Github tickets
pointing to the original one on Lighthouse so we can go there and read old
discussions. Here is what you need to do to keep a ticket alive:

1) Create a ticket on https://github.com/cucumber/cucumber/issues with a
title that is identical to the original Lighthouse ticket's title. On the
first line of the ticket body, add a link to the original Lighthouse ticket
in Markdown - for example:

        [Original Lighthouse Ticket 165](
https://rspec.lighthouseapp.com/projects/16211/tickets/165-error-when...
)

2) In the old Lighthouse ticket - add a link to the new Github ticket so
other people don't accidentally create dupes.

Lighthouse tickets that don't get reopened on Github can be considered dead.
Now I'm going to run a script that will close *all* tickets on Lighthouse
and add a little comment that points to this message.

Thanks for your help,
Aslak and the cuke team.

In fact - skip step 2) folks.
I went ahead and marked the old Lighthouse tracker as read-only to prevent
people from accidentally adding new tickets there or continuing discussions.
I don't think dupes on Github will be a big issue as long as people use the
same ticket titles as the original and look around on Github before moving
tickets over.

Unfortunately, this prevents non-admins from even accessing the old
tickets.

E.g., all I see when I try to view one of my tickets is:

    Oops! : This is not a public project
    If you think this is an error, please contact one of the
administrators
    of this site. You can also log in with another profile.

This makes it difficult to transfer said ticket to github. :)

That's a shame. I have unarchived it now, so feel free to follow step 2)
anyway :-)
