Thanks.

So, I guess the first step is to gather git ids for past
contributors. :/ I can work on this.  I suppose then it's a matter of
running svn2git, which I've already done successfully once.

Question for everyone interested, do you think I should copy the whole
zc.buildout project, and thus its history?

Or would it be better to start a new project based on the 1.4 branch
(or 1.4.4 tag)? The later would be simpler, as I wouldn't have to
chase down (often non-existent) git ids for past contributors.

Does anyone have any objections to renaming the project "buildout"?
I expect that most existing recipes would work with the new
buildout.  Recipes that import zc.buildout (zc.buildout.easy_install)
would be broken.  Those recipes would be likely to be broken
by changes we'd make (like omissions of the new 1.5-based
APIs) anyway.
