Usually, a dumpfile is used rather than a zipped up repository, I think.
I would suggest locating an svn admin who can work with you to do a
test now - so you'd dump the repository without locking it out, load
it up into the test repository, check it works, so that you know what
to do and minimise downtime of your commit access when you are ready
to do the real thing.
I'm not an svn admin either, though - so best to get in touch with
them and see how they usually do it :)
A zipped up repository (assuming it's in fsfs format, not bdb) is just
as easy for us to work with as a dumpfile, just means there's one more
step for the infra person doing the job (usually me).
The other thing we need is a list of the committers who have committed
to the repos in question and the mapping from their old username to
their ASF username so we can convert the old svn:author revprops to
match the new ASF usernames, for consistency.
Once both of those are available, and all the paperwork (CLAs,
software grants, etc) are sent in and acknowledged by the ASF
secretary just file an INFRA Jira ticket to schedule things and we'll
get it moving.
