I'll start a thread on general@ about how to proceed with a dump. I've seen some mention of uploading a dump to JIRA, but that seems...bizarre. I think just uploading it to your account on people.apache.org and posting the SHA checksum to the list should be sufficient. To set expectations, I'd expect it would take about 48 hours from when we hand over the dump to being fully available. In general, the dump will be loaded into a test repository (to insure no problems in the loading), let us verify the load is "correct", and then, if all looks good, load it in to the main repository. (If we coordinate with the infra team, this can be reduced to a shorter window if necessary.) Do you have an idea how big the dump will be? If it's rather big, then it may be best to wait until some pending HW upgrades to the main SVN server are deployed. Depending upon how we do it, loading a dump may also knock out the EU mirror until it receives the dump - so imports are often done when EU is asleep. (On the master, we're installing ZFS l2arch's on SSDs - see http://blogs.sun.com/brendan/entry/test ; but we're waiting on a SAS card that is supported by FreeBSD, so...soon...yah...soon.) > I¹m happy to start the process.
