Another post indicated that git-fast-import format lacks some structure 
that had to be resynthesized in another *2* conversion.  Perhaps that's 
not the best format, say I, who at present know nothing about any of 
these formats.

I'd like to look at this, possibly next January.  If anyone else would, 
please do also.  The more the merrier, at least during design discovery 
stage.  What languages are all these *2* programs written in?

IN case I have to tear one apart, are any written in secure, statically 
typed languages (whose programs I find easiest to read and debug).
