That said, I have the conversion routines set up right now to create a separate "toolkits" repository, which currently includes all the contents of trunk/toolkits. I can tailor this further to split the toolkits up and create a repository for each, if thats how people want to do it. Those repos could either be hosted as separate repositories under the matplotlib github organization, or maybe better as a repository under a separate github project. In case of the latter, I can temporarily publish the repository at my own account, long enough for Jeff to clone it (don't fork it using githubs fork button!) and push it to its final destination.
