That's a good point; I've registered the git branches for those GNOME
projects that still had svn imports as their "development focus" branch.

I guess there isn't much value in keeping those old svn import branches
for GNOME around; should I just request they are deleted rather than
getting them upgraded to 2a? That should also bring the number of CSCVS
SVN import branches down quite a bit.

I'll file a RT about getting the other svn/git/hg branches upgraded to
2a.

Cheers,

Jelmer
