Hi, We have completed the move. Please give it a try and report any problems you find.
Please discontinue using types branch since it will no longer be used for active development. If you are a developer, create patches against trunk rather than types branch. If you are a committer, please, commit new code to the trunk rather than types branch. If you have any code in types branch that needs to be committed, just create a patch out of it and it will work on the trunk.
