We've been discussing for two months now how to get Hg over to SVN.
There have been several suggestions for how the CWS's and complete
revision history could be migrated over, but little progress has been
made. Either the proposals didn't work, or no volunteers stepped
forward to implement them.

Soon, I hope, the OOo code will be checked into SVN. After that
happens I think we need to coordinate on the next steps. I know that
several of us have code they'd like to check-in, CWS's to integrate,
LGPL code to remove, etc. But let's stage this work carefully, so we
minimize problems.
