If possible, the accounts needs to merged with SUL since most users used the same userid there.

I'm not sure who would be best to help with this, so I'm CCing Jens, Ashar, and Mark. Hopefully one of them will be able to help.

Ashar or Jens will be able to do it. My role will be to annoy them until they do ;)

Mark, probably I should join in with you as well in annoying them until the transfer is done. :-)

We really need this transfer done asap.

THere might be user privacy concerns with importing user data... Could probably create a new wiki then import the page data and edit history.

Will the page data and edit history will be lost, by any chance, during the transfer ?

My main issue is creating the wiki on the cluster since I crashed it a few weeks ago while attempting to create the Esperanto Wikisource.
Since I learn from mistakes, I will try to create it this week. Once the wiki is created we will have to makes sure Apache mod_rewrite supports wikimedia.in domain.

As for the actions:

• lower the TTL on wikimedia.in DNS zone
• generate a dump for the current site
• try to import the dump on WMF cluster
• change the DNS :)

Note I am not sure dumpBackup.php do save the User table.

I have made no progress beside writing the action plan :-/

Are the Wikimedia.in folks still looking to do this, or have they come up with another solution?

Ashar, if they still plan on moving to our cluster, who should do the move? Or do you have time to do it now?

We had a mail exchange with CT Woo, it seems the wiki will be moved to the CH chapter server. Not sure what to do with this bug now :(

seems like we WONTFIX it then :)
