Although not required when writing your own migration, the Migrate module provides ways for us to decorate our migrations with additional information making it easier to keep track of who is working on what, what needs to get done, and related issues. We've already seen some of this in previous lessons with with the Do Not Migrate option for fields and ability to provide field mapping descriptions. In this lesson we'll take a look at how we can make use of the additional tools to do things like; Show the name, contact info, and roles of individuals working on the migration, pose questions to other team members via the migration UI, and link individual field mappings to related tickets in our bug tracking software. Making it easier for team members who don't want to be involved with the code to help move our migration along.

Over the years we've developed some techniques for practicing that we wanted to share. At Drupalize.Me we take hugging seriously. In this tutorial we'll look at the art, and science, of giving a good hug. The Merriam Webster dictionary defines the word hug as; squeeze (someone) tightly in one's arms, typically to express affection.
Did you know there are all kinds of different hugs that you can give? In this tutorial we'll look at:
- Defining what a hug is
- Some of the many types of hugs in the world today
- Precautions you may want to familiarize yourself with before hugging
- And the importance of proper technique
Lets go ahead and get started shall we?
