The problem is many projects will have already migrated over, some of
the projects on todo.kde.org are no longer in use or their contents
are now irrelevant.
We can't bulk migrate everything for that reason - hence why
individual projects need to do it on a one by one basis.

Plus there is the issue that projects, etc already exist in some
instances on Phabricator.
