Yes, that is my take on it.  Since it seems that everyone is open to
*discuss* moving to git/github, Stefan and I will draft a NEP for this
transition.  Stefan is currently visiting Berkeley, so we can easily
work together on this over the next few days.  However, we are going
camping this weekend so we will be off-line more or less from Thursday
night until Monday night.  We will start the git/github NEP during the
trip and then post it to the list for feedback and discussion on
Monday night or Tuesday morning.  If anyone else is interested in
helping draft the NEP over the weekend, please let me know ASAP.

We will raise and address as many concerns as possible.  I believe the
concerns raised so far can be satisfactorily addressed and hopefully
the process of writing the NEP will let us systematically explore any
potential concerns or problems.

Here is a quick list of topics we will address in the NEP:

- Client (Windows, Mac, and Linux) support
- Issue tracking system integration
- Buildbot interaction
- Workflow
- Legacy support for svn clients
- Testing and deployment
- Potential timeline

If you have any other areas of concern you would like to see
addressed, please let us know.  Obviously, the weekend draft will be
subject to change according to the feedback.

Thanks,
Jarrod
