Hi PCMan, (hi all),

I don't see the benefit for the migration of the repository myself as I
commit not much as I mainly do packaging for Debian. And I have to learn
and setup something new for new VCS.

However, I do respect the coders who commit very often as the project
needs more coders than packagers.

Please consider to take the opinions from active coders and translators
rather than packagers.

Kindly regards,

-Andrew
