+Perl script to sync individual projects to another Redmine instance.
+
+Status
+
+My current goal is to synchronize one isolated project, which only has
+Wiki pages and attachments, from one instance to another.  In the end,
+this project shall only be used on the destination instance.  This is
+more complicated that initially assumed but still leaves out the rather
+hairy problem of migrating issues or even issue numbers and whatever
+embedded in Wiki text.
+
+Right now, synchronizing stuff that are related to users work.
+
+The next step is to attack the Wiki.
+
+Why Perl?  I'm not fluent enough in Ruby to even consider it as the
+tool of choice for this problem.  The script directly talks with
+the MySQL databases of the Redmine instances, it basically ignores
+the API.
