Hi Valentin

Does Savannah's issue tracker receive and display images?  Just
asking, I don't know, although I believe not.  And would the size of our
Issue DB be a problem?  I didn't get an answer from the Savannah
devs.

There is no import mechanism from GoogleCode, AFAIK, so we'd
have to develop that, as well as rewriting git cl, patchy, etc.  These
latter would be easier to do with a similar API.
