So 9.1 is out, and one could think about starting the migration project
actually :)
I also still think, that moving to git would be nice, but apperently, the
fact, that in theory one can work with diffs, is enough to block the whole
idea of migration as soon as there is something more important to do, that
will be always true :)
So maybe it makes sence just to start a project of migration to git and
prepare some scripts to do it, discuss pros and contras and keep a readonly
copy of a git repository that will be fetching all CVS commits and push them
to git repository for a while, then see, if it was what we want, and when we
have a working thing, just start using it at some point?
