Hi Max,
I thought I'd add some input instead of staying silent (Thanks for cc'ing the Bug
Wranglers in Patrick!).
As I understand it, now that we know bugs can still be accessible, the main objection is
to keep the bug migration game going (and the effort spent to make sure it's done
right).
It looks like the workaround with the teams will work smoothly, without adding much of a
barrier to the bug migration game.
Just to make sure, would anyone still be able to update existing issues? (e.g. status
changed, comments added, receive notifications for these)
If the existing issues aren't modifiable, I would prefer to keep launchpad as is till
the bug migration game is over though (perhaps we should consider when it should be closed
if we can't migrate them all over.
If existing issues are modifiable, don't have any objections from my end. I do notice
that there is a steady trickle of bug reports that are consistently opened; closing the
page does seem helpful even while the bug migration is going on since we are wasting time
dealing with these reports anyway.
The last objection is the effort spent. Well, thanks for picking up this task again and
investigating!
Regards,
Nathan.

Hi,
I just tested that I can still edit bugs if we lock the submissions.
Hopefully this also applies to regular users.
In my opinion, we should end the bug migration after releasing 1.1 - at
the current rate of progress, it would take 6 years to finish, which
does not make sense. We have almost reached the point where there are
more open issues on GitLab than on Launchpad, and IMO the vast majority
of those remaining on LP are useless.
Regards
Max
