Description

Goals:

  • User user or admin should be able to migrate the user data from a remote server
  • Apps can register "migration plugins" to handle migrating the user data they store.
  • It should be possible to have transparent migration (in combination with other GS features) when using supported apps

Milestones:

  • Architecture and migration of user files as proof of concept Done in 13
  • Add migration plugins for sharing, user settings and activity
  • Migration plugins for versions, trashbin and comments
  • Determine a set of apps which makes sense in a GS setup and ensure that transparent migration is possible when using those apps.
