You have CVS Access, GIT Access, and Shell Access for
PDL at sourceforge.net.  That is all you should need
to do this.

I think you'll need to convert some of your "thumb
twiddling" time into "figure out how to do it" time.
Somehow you appear to have gotten  the impression that
PDL developers are all-knowing and all-powerful. :-)

A quick google showed that there is a git-cvsimport
command that can be used to migrate a CVS repo to git.
A simple, all defaults, conversion should be enough
for the web site as the web site content is the
important part and not the detailed change logs.

Please use pdl-www as the repository name.  Once you
get things converted, let me know and I can set up
an empty repository on sourceforge.net for you to
upload to.

There are instructions on sourceforge.net on how to
set up a repository.  You'll need to use a shell
session to complete them.  Just be careful not to
issue any git delete commands.  It would be a
*huge* help  if you could document the details of
both steps of the conversion.

Cheers,
Chris
