| − | The goal of Windows Data Migration is provide a one-stop data migration
| |
| − | to migrate all Windows data from a Windows System to Linux during
| |
| − | installation or even after installation. It will support XP and Vista
| |
| − | Windows data.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | ===Features===
| |
| − | | |
| − | = A user-friendly, simple GUI with advanced setting will provide the
| |
| − | ease of use and flexibility to new comer.
| |
| − | = File System (folder) sharing will provide the flexibility when new
| |
| − | linux user needs to rely on Windows when needed. User can save data in a
| |
| − | special directory/folder for Windows System.
| |
| − | = All instance messager, images, audio, movies and documents will be
| |
| − | migrated and supported. Associated open-source software, freeware will
| |
| − | be installed during migration.
| |
| − | =
| |
| − | | |
| − | After a typical user has installed Linux in a pre-existing windows
| |
| − | system, there is a number of configuration steps that must be taken
| |
| − | before they get a comfortable working environment. This includes
| |
| − | personal data like pictures, music, mails etc but also settings like
| |
| − | wallpaper. The goal would be to lessen that pain and provide a
| |
| − | relatively familiar working environment right after installation.

| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Future Developement / Advanced Functions:===
| |
| − | | |
| − | * environment migration
| |
| − | * mail accounts, import mail database (outlook, thunderbird, etc)
| |
| − | :* (humph, Nov 3, 2008) This can be done via Thunderbird's -migrate command line switch, in order to pull all mail/settings into the current profile (i.e., assumes a profile). However, since this produces an mbox, you could also use it to then dump to some other mail client. See also code in http://mxr.mozilla.org/comm-central/source/mail/components/migration/src/
| |
| − | * Windows a-like environment setting
| |
| − | * automatic download applications associate all file type
| |
| − | * IM migration
| |
| − | | |
