I don't know from the indicated wald page. What we need is that the CVS2SVN 
migration is launched on the CVS server and stuff migrated to SVN including
code
history. It was communicated by Bernhard that there is no time for that in
the near
future.

But we should no longer wait, otherwise some developers may go away.
Since OSGeo is offering SVN infrastructure to the OSGeo projects, this could
be an alternative then.
