Milane, any progress on this?
Comment 2 Milan Kubec 2009-08-31 13:01:52 UTC 
Yes, working on it. Not as easy as it looked for the first sight.
Comment 3 Milan Kubec 2009-09-01 10:19:29 UTC 
I can provide somewhat partial solution. Project move cannot be implemented generally for all project types. Each
project type can have its own impl. of move operation that is accessible from UI. But there is default impl for those
projects that doesn't need anything special and it would be the same for this API call. Such projects that use default
implementation of the operation have particular class in its lookup. Proposed solution would look for the class in
project lookup and if the class is available then move operation would do the same as default impl. just without
dialogs. And if the class is not available in project lookup then move operation would end up with exception.
Comment 4 Milan Kubec 2009-09-03 13:23:52 UTC 
After talk with Maros we decided not to implement it this way.
