I have been using bzr-mirror for the past few months happily, thanks to John
Carr's work I can pull from either bzr-mirror or directly from svn, and push
to svn as if it was a bzr branch.

I personally think that keeping svn, and maintaining bzr-mirror, git-mirror,
and hopefully an hg-mirror would make everyone happy. All of bzr, hg and git
provide a mean to interop with svn, while there is not always a way to
interop between the various DRCS that people tend to prefer, so maybe
sticking with svn for now would be the right choice ?
