I second this approach. I've utilized it successfully in an ongoing migration. I also second the need to have engineering knowledge from the previous system available. I was lead for 5 years on a previous system before being tasked as

I'd argue that what Match Group did with OKC was bordering on criminal. Everything on it worked and it worked for small, often marginalized groups. It was turned into a worse version of tender.

N900 was my first smartphone and still miss the feeling of having a proper Linux box in my pocket. Unfortunately didn't buy the n9 as it was clear it was dead in the water by the time it came out. Based on my contacts at Nokia it was s

The Netherlands is struggling with a lack of grid capacity due to political decisions to ignore the power network management companies that pleaded for at least a decade for expansion.
