I agree we should move to git. 

I do want to see the history preserved though and the result of the
conversion to be sane and make sense. My experience of git-svn is that
it can sometimes need careful attention. I don't know how much churn
like layout changes the svn repository has had though...

So yes, I'm in favour as long as we do it properly. I'm still not happy
with the OE history but I just haven't got the time to do anything about
it :(.

Cheers,
