---------------------------------


We can close this for now, but we will still need a registry migrator for based on new data models in future.

> As we are starting to see Airavata being used in production by friendly users, we need to ensure backward compatibility and also switching between releases. A Airavata-Migration-Tool might help here. The migration tool should assist with two tasks:
> * say if I deploy airavata 0.5 on a tomcat, i want to deploy a new 0.5, the migration tool should be able to export the data and import into new deployment. A database dump and restore might work, but the trick here is to make sure the security mappings and gateway id's and so on correct.
> * going forward with every release we probably want to ship the migrator tools, so users with previous version deployments can migrate to newer ones adapting to any registry schema changes.
