 I think we pretty much have consensus so far to switch the main site.
 However, I know before we can deploy this for incubator.a.o that we
 need to determine how to get svnpubsub to deal with subdirs that
 aren't necessarily using svnpubsub - as we do not necessarily want to
 force all of the podlings to switch their sites right now.
 So...thoughts here?  I think you mentioned tweaking our rsync scripts,

Whats the status of this - do we still need to do svn up or is

Speaking of, that service in moving from Solaris in the very near future, which
is rumored to be the origin of the stability problems.  So if incubator were to
wait a short period until that move, we might not have any issues once it has
been rolled out.

Also, as has been said, few podlings will opt for the current
Anakia/checkout on p.a.o approach, so there's little argument that
making them use it for the incubator site is 'educational'.

+1 from me too. As a current incubator contributor, this would make 
things easier, although I never thought the p.a.o step was particularly 
cumbersome, just inconvenient.


Fwiw, Traffic Server switched to the pubsub system for our distributions

I agree that the site update process is cumbersome, but it also gives
podling folks an incentive to log on to p.a.o and learn to use that
system to their advantage. Moving to svnpubsub would take that away.

That said, I think that most committers never have to go to p.a.o in
any case so perhaps the point is moot.
