AFAIK the issues database and associated comments are the only
part of Google Code that we, the LilyPond community, use.  It is
vital we don't lose this.

Two questions:  

(a) how do we take a copy of this data base to keep it safe, 
    including all the follow-up discussions?  Making a CSV
    copy just seems to download the index.

(b) Is Google Code open-source or proprietary?
