Yes, it can be closed. I'm only researching right now.

Although I can't think of any big repercussions in switching the main www.gnu.org repository either, allowing individual projects to switch their web vc would need both UI and back-end development time for savannah (and the sysadmins).

Jason, I'm thinking we can close this for now, until and unless the switch gets more imminent?  Feel free to re-open if you want ...

After every cvs a commit, a special script is ran which updates wildebeest the directory checkout on wildebeest.  FSF sysadmin need to update the wildebeest script, then we can configure Savanah to call the script on wildebeest.

That said, little needs changed on the Savannah side.  We simply need a repository and the arguments to the wildebeest script.

I'm looking at switching gnu.org to Bazaar. I've created a Bazaar repo in the www project. A few months ago Bernie gave me a copy of the CVS repo from the server to try out a dry run of the cvs to bzr migration, and it went well. I'd like to discuss what changes on Savannah might need to be made in order to accomplish a switchover (right now, as I understand it, there's some kind of post-commit hook that's used to update the "real" website hosted in wildebeest but I don't know much more beyond that. I don't want to do the conversion just yet but rather just open the conversation about it.
