We are looking to migrate the osgeo svn service to a new server this
week. It's seems reasonable that bring in pgRouting could be part of
that move. I think we can at least get you instructions on how to
prepare a dump to be copied over. We'd also of course need a dump from
Trac, do you know what version of Trac you're running?

For mailing list, creating a new one is relatively easy, is there a dump
of subscribers that you want to migrate over?

Thanks,
