Chad, I had an idea....

For people who have extensions in Subversion, can we make you available for
a specified 2-hour block where people whose extensions are in SVN can watch
you do a conversion, and then they get a pretty git repo out of it?

That way, they can be sure that their extension gets migrated, and it
hopefully doesn't feel like magic since they know you're doing it right there.
