+1. A VPS (hosted by Hetzner) providing the following features powered by NixOS and Gitea:
    * a tracking system provisioned with the issues migrated from Trac (same numbers)
    * a Wiki system provisioned with the relevant pages migrated from Trac (same names)
    * a static website replacing the landing page from Trac with the code required for CI and CD
    * a blog post for the Hall of Fame page (if sensible - fallback = static page)
-   * a repository defining the VPS it-self and its configuration as code (including the secrets)
+   * a (Git) repository defining the VPS it-self and its configuration as code (including the secrets using sops)
+   * optionally including the terraform code allowing to manage the related DNS records (if Gandi supports it)
 2. A detailed migration plan to handle the transition (DNS changes and/or redirections)
-   * w/ or w/o terraform code covering the DNS (if Gandi supports it? fallback on manual steps)
+   * documented in a this wiki page
+   * covering the possible manual steps related to DNS records, HTTP redirections or URL rewriting
+   * with a (Git) repository including/referring to the tools used to actually migrate
 3. An high-level migration plan for the features hosted on the VPS described to be later hosted on Codeberg SaaS (assuming it is possible)
+   * documented in this wiki page too
