And a good thing, too. SF.net already said they are thinking about phasing out CVS support. We really should look into moving forward. And not just for dists/, also the fink code and the web stuff would benefit from this -- but this is a separate matter. > I've rebuilt my repo on github again with updated author names and addresses, > but the addresses I used are the usern...@users.sourceforge.net since that's > all we have in a central location.

But everybody is able to link extra email addresses with their account. So, even if fingol...@users.sf.net is used, it should still link fine with my account. Another remark: For ScummVM, we just moved from SF.net SVN to github. For that, we used svn2git plus some custom shell scripts to tweak history a bit. Fixup some mistakes in the history , connect some disconnected history back together, massage branches in a form that was useful for us. Maybe this is less relevant for Fink, but it might still be useful. If you are interested in anything about this, I could get you in touch with the guy who did all this for ScummVM, maybe he has some valuable hints for you. Lastly, I added a Fink org on github, just in case we want to go there: <https://github.com/organizations/fink>. This is by no means a pre-decision or anything; I just wanted to make sure the name is reserved.
