Hi, especially Nicolás and Jeremy, so far it seems everyone is looking forward to seeing the migration of kdesdk to git finally happen, good :)

Can the result be checked somewhere? Those "brave people" are you, Nicolás and Jeremy :) Do you want to pick up your work again and be our experts in the kdesdk migration? I myself have not really followed any of the migrations to git, so have no real idea about the process. http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/MovetoGit only helped me a little. Do kdeedu or kdeutils or else have a log of their process which could be followed? I guess it's something like this: 1. Decide which repos should be created from which submodules 2. Write migration rules 3. Setup a test git server with resulting repos to check rules 4. Have everyone okay the rules 5. Migration! a) Put writelock on module in svn b) Create real repos by the rules c) Configure EBN, API DOX, translations systems (what else?) for new repos d) Put "Moved to git" note to module in svn e) Enable write access to git modules Correct? Steps 1 and 4 are to be done basically by the maintainers of the stuff in kdesdk. For step 1, the continuation of the discussion about the splitup of module will happen next on the kdesdk-devel mailinglist (I still need to get a complete picture of all the stuff in kdesdk, if anyone else has that do not hesitate to start off), the result should end up on a wikipage. The other steps need to be done by people with migration experience and admins, here I hope for the help of e.g. Nicolás and Jeremy, as said above :) BTW, there is now an additional submodule since last week, "kdesdk/thumbnailers" which does not yet have rules.
