Hi Chris,

I can assure you this topic has come up many times - and unless we
have volunteers that can manage to get the several thousand tickets
with comment history into GitHub (which I'm sure that nobody wants to
get tied to when you have a workflow already), without losing
anything, then it's most likely Twisted is sticking with svn and trac.

Git has svn support - see `git svn`. I have merged several branches
with it, and it works great. Use that instead, if you get commit access :)
