Sorry, no, we're not planning to support any Subversion services until
the migration cut-off. The sysadmin team don't want to be in a position
of having to support multiple version control systems simultaneously,
there is a technical issue that means it wouldn't be straightforward to
set up, and it'll make the live migration more confusing for me too!

After the migration, it shouldn't be a problem to just send a compressed
dump of your subversion repository to 'support gnome org' and we'll
install it. Obviously, it'll have to follow the usual guidelines for new
modules, as I'm sure yours do :)
