FogBugz Data Migration

Hi,

I really like your product, and I've showed it to support and devs who are on board, but we have a few questions.

1) Am I correct in thinking that there is no support for TFS yet? Is that under development?

2) Do you have a feature request widget? Like people can submit and rank features they want to see in future versions?

3) And this is the biggest one, we have years of FogBugz data that we would LIKE to migrate over to Lighthouse. It's not critical, not quite a sticking point, but almost. It would be a concession if there was no way of important those old lighthouse tickets.

Thanks guys! Keep up the good work!

Regards,
Alec

   Hey Alec.

   1. We do not have TFS support. As of right now, it's not on our radar.
   2. We have a widget for submitting discussions, but ranking features and requests is not part of the functionality. Tender only tracks the number of watchers on a discussion. We don't have plans to include voting features at this time.
   3. I don't recall a FogBuz importer, but there are a number of migration scripts available on http://github.com/search?langOverride=&q=lighthouse&repo=&a... so using the API it's possible to do. We just don't have it automated on our end yet.

   Thanks for your speedy response.

   If you could write a import script for FogBugz, we could make a two
   year commitment to your system.

   Thank you for the kind offer. I certainly wish we could whip up and import script for you and lock that kind of deal with, but right now we're extremely booked working on the core systems.

   If you have the know-how to mess with the API, we can probably lend some assistance with small questions, but we're just not able to which up the code on request right now. One the rush side of things, there are plenty of developers who can do it for hire though.

   Ok, ok!

   Fine, haha. Well we like Lighthouse so probably 2 years probably goes without saying.

   We can export FogBugz Data as .csv. Is there an easy way to import csv into lighthouse?

   I havent used it, but there is http://github.com/edmz/csv2lighthouse which is kind of old, but it should work.
