791113 - Remove Firefox :: Account Manager component

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: Administration, task)

Description

[Justin Dolske [:Dolske]]

This got created by bug 574175, but the project known as Account Manager has been abandoned (in favor of Persona ne BrowserID).

I noticed bug 673621 was misfiled here, I've moved/closed it and the 7 other open bugs in this component.

There are still 79 bugs that will need to be moved (open or closed) to another component before it can be deleted.

Unfortunately quite a few of them look like test bugs but we still need to move them off to somewhere else.

Oh, right. Do we have a Graveyard product we can just move this to instead? Or a Graveyard::MassGrave (*shudder*) to move bugs to and then nuke the component?

I have created the new "Firefox Graveyard" and "Account Manager" component that we can move these to. It is located under the "Graveyard" classification along with the other retired products.

Moving this over to IT as they will need to do the actual moving with a script:

Admin, please perform the following steps:

1. # perl contrib/reorg-tools/syncmsandversions.pl "Firefox" "Firefox Graveyard"
2. # perl contrib/reorg-tools/movebugs.pl "Firefox" "Account Manager" "Firefox Graveyard" "Account Manager"

Once the above is complete, move back this bug back to bugzilla,mozilla.org/Administration and we can then delete the old Firefox/Account Manager component.

Thanks

Moving 79 bugs from Firefox:Account Manager to Firefox Graveyard:Account Manager

[:glob ✱]

would have been easier to use movecomponent.pl ;)
