For over 17 years, the Perl NOC has hosted an RT instance for Perlbug, the system that tracks and manages Perl bugs and feature requests. Two weekends ago, it transitioned to GitHub. Background is available in this thread.
We'd especially like to thank Todd Rinaldo who led the migration and did most of the work. His attention to detail cannot be understated. 17 years of data (some of which had been migrated to RT from the previous system) required a lot of tweaking and polishing to make it look nice. His hard work shows in the result.
It's been fun and interesting to support this particular piece of Perl development for so long. We're excited about the new possibilities that GitHub's platform enables for Perl's fourth decade.
