+1.  I do still touch some of the ztk packages and would dearly love to ditch
svn, but just haven't had the time to think about a proper migration.  Should
we just admit defeat and do on-demand conversions, preserving history if
possible but not worrying about it too much?

And then what about just using gbp and ignoring git-dpm?  The latter still
kind of works but we know it's a dead-end.  Anybody looked at dgit?  Is that
a useful option?
