The old repo is on svn-archive.gnome.org in the same location; only a
hostname update is required.  There is no way with gnome SVN (according
to bkor) to make the repo read-only except by moving it to svn-archive.

Otherwise people could commit.  I did update README and ChangeLog, but
that's not enough to stop translators and other random commits that
somebody might make.
