Import or update tickets in batch from an Excel or CSV file into Trac

Description

This plugin lets you import into Trac a series of tickets from an CSV file or (if the xlrd library is installed) from an Excel file.

You can also use it to modify tickets in batch, by saving a report as CSV, editing the CSV file, and re-importing the tickets.

This plugin is very useful when starting a new project: you can import a list of requirements that may have come from meeting notes, list of features, other ticketing systems... It's also great to review the tickets off-line, or to do massive changes to tickets.

It is used by software products development teams daily on several projects in at least three companies.
