+sf2github README
+================
+
+`sf2github` is a Python program that reads an XML export from a SourceForge project and pushes this data to GitHub via its REST API.
+
+The script is currently very incomplete and barely tested. If it works for you, great; if not, fix it up and send me a pull request! Currently, only migration of tracker issues is partly implemented, and there's no error handling.
+
+Also note that the GitHub API is quite slow, taking about 5 seconds per request on my machine and internet connection. Migration of a large project will take a while.
+
+Issue migration
+---------------
+
+What works (for me):
+
+* SF tracker issues become GitHub tracker issues.
+* Comments on SF become comments in GitHub.
+* Groups and categories on SF both become labels on GitHub.
+* Issues with a status that is exactly the text "Closed" or "Deleted" will be closed on GitHub.
+
+Limitations:
+
+* Only a single tracker is supported, though this could be easily fixed.
+* All issues and comments will be owned by the project's owner on GitHub, but mention the SF username of the original submitter.
+* There's some rubbish in the comment text sometimes (Logged In, user_id, Originator) but this is in the SF XML export.
+* There are encoding errors in the SF export of (at least) comments. Non-ASCII characters are encoded with UTF-8, then decoded (interpreted) as CP1252, and those code points gets encoded as XML entities. The script does not work around this. See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5291081/how-did-sourceforge-maim-this-unicode-character
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+Run the `issues.py` script and it will print instructions. Basically, if your SF XML export is in `foo.xml`, your GitHub username is `john` and your repository is `bar`:
+
+    ./issues.py foo.xml john/bar
+
