git transition exploratory team

[Owen Taylor <otaylor redhat com>]

Hey - 

There's a lot of not-very-productive-discussion and angst going around
now about what we are doing for VCS.

A group of us who believe that a straight git transition probably makes
sense (myself, Federico, Behdad, Elijah, Kristan Hoegsburg) have started
looking into the concrete steps necessary to get there.

Expect this week:

 - A written proposal about how we think it should happen (including
   verification steps on the converted repositories, etc.)

Expect within the next week or two:

 - An experimental server up with git and cgit and some converted 
   modules

There are some notes at http://live.gnome.org/GitMigration. Further
discussion to gnome-infrastructure gnome org
