What is this?

This tiny program lets you migrate work items from an ibm RTC server to another issue tracker like Jira or Bitbucket.

Basic concept

Rtc2jira basically does two things:

  • Import work items from a given RTC installation
  • Exports this work items to one or more destinations

You can run this process as many times as you want. It will always update your items if they already exist at your destination.

How can I use it?

Up so far, its possible to:

  • Import some basic informations from the RTC work items into a local database
  • Export as Github-Issues (Creation & Update, but without any comments)
  • Export as Jira-Issues (Creation, but without comments)

Preconditions
