Migration Assistant

Registered by Sascha Brossmann

This blueprint has been superseded. See the newer blueprint "Migration Assistance" for updated plans.

Develop an application to ease transition from other platforms (primarily Windows) to Ubuntu Linux. Moving important personal data like contacts, email, calendar, browser bookmarks, etc. to Ubuntu should 'just work' automagically and not require manually moving and importing files into the respective applications. The application should rely on a plug-in architecture for the actual data migration. In case of branding conflicts (-> Apple) the tool could be named "Escape Agent".
