_From @fedorov on Fri Aug 10 2018 13:57:31 GMT+0000 (UTC)_ @lassoan absolutely, although I am not sure what is the good way to migrate. Did you mean to copy individual posts, or make a summary of the discussion? ---

If there is consensus, I can proceed to the copy of the issue discussions into the [support](https://discourse.slicer.org/c/support) category on the Slicer forum. After the import, we can split/delete/re-organize posts. Should we keep the same title of find a better one ? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/slicer/original/3X/b/4/b42bd70cb4a6f4752088d2315b6aca717a3d4711.png) ---
