Reza/all,

Good point. Thanks for raising this.
There could be legal/licensing issues preventing this, but from a pure
technical point of view, mirroring this in either direction (from DeviceMap
to OpenDDR might actually be the easier direction also from a license /
legal perspective[?]) should be not a bit issue.

In a project some while ago in Austria we did that between Hg and SVN,
doing the same between Git and SVN would not be too big of a deal either.

Thoughts, opinions?
