You have an account on aussie, don't you?  I don't know where the database 
is located, but maybe it's readable by everyone. Otherwise I guess the 
best bet is if Lars' has a dump of the database available.

Lars', do you have such a dump lying around on the new server? If Uwe 
really wants to try, I could see to it that he gets it.

However... unless Uwe know bugzilla well, I suspect it'll be a lot of work 
but maybe I'm just pessimistic as I personally I have no knowledge of 
bugzilla internals. The reason I'm pessimistic is that we have been using 
an old version of bugzilla, and I don't think changing to a much newer 
version will be easy.

Besides possible difficulties in upgrading and server change, Lars doesn't 
want to work with it, which is certainly his right.

PS. If it's "easy" to do the install/migration/upgrade to Bugzilla and Uwe 
gives it a try somewhere else first, I can certainly do this on the new 
server with assistance. But giving Trac a good try first seems like 
something very reasonable to do.
