Well I've put up my git-svn mirror of GTKG on github (I've just noticed there has been a bit of burst of activity the last few months). I'll endeavour to keep it synced manually so it's reasonably up to date. So we have a back-up of all activity in git form if anyone want to play with it, archive it or use it to build patches for submitting back to the project without affecting our current use of SVN. Once the 0.97 release is done the core developers can then decide on how they would like to move on creating an "official" master git repo. https://github.com/stsquad/gtk-gnutella -- Alex, homepage: http://www.bennee.com/~alex/ The only disadvantage I see is that it would force everyone to get Perl.
