Per my earlier comments, I think we've reached the juncture where a "blessed" 
svn2git export would be extremely helpful.

I suspect quite a bit will end up in github just due to its accessibility, but 
hosting our own is certainly also an option.  In some sense, this strikes me 
as secondary to establishing some of the details about how to prepare patches, 
known nits, and having an authoritative origin.
