RE: [Mantisbt-dev] Importing new issues

Hi Paul,

I suggest one of the following approaches:

1. Use PHP to load your data from your current format, and use the PHP
APIs to save them to Mantis.

- Use auth_attempt_script_login() to login from a script.
- Use user_create() to create the users (reporters, developers, ...etc).
- Use bug_create(), bugnote_add(), ... etc to create the data.

2. Use C# to load your data from your current format, and use
MantisConnect to save them to Mantis:

I don't see an advantage in using Perl since you will have to
communicate directly with the database which will complicate your work.

Regards,
Victor.
