I think we should be careful about mass-porting of projects. If you look at original SqueakSource, there are a LOT of projects and a lot of them are junk projects.<div><br></div><div><div>Here with SS3 we have a chance to start fresh with more quality, less quantity. Leave the old SS as-is with more quantity, less quality. It's really not hard to set up Account + Projects at SS3, but just enough that we will end up with new, active projects.</div>

</div>For one, this does not preserve meta data. But more importantly we're concerned about the long-term availability of the stuff stored there that is *not* copied to ss3. This just didn't make it into the minutes. So we're talking to the people for how to ensure that no data is lost should they decide to discontinue their service.<br>
