Archiving CVS repositories is only a minor part of the problem as anyone familiar with the gborg migration will tell you. Mailing lists, their archives, bug reports, file downloads, ... All that stuff has to be dealt with. If we're never going to come up with an automated migration plan, then we at least need to allow time for people to do a manual migration or archival of what they feel is important to their projects. Unilaterally declaring that gborg will be shutdown with a 24 hour window doesn't seem reasonable. I'm sure many interested parties aren't even subscribed to this list. If you want to give up on automated migration, then we need a wider announcement, more time, and the readiness of pgfoundry admins to accomodate the needs of moving projects. Kris Jurka
