No, I think it's a bit premature to be talking about that, and switching 
to git is a much larger undertaking than just shuffling modules around. 
  Even if the git-svn repos seem to work pretty well, I wouldn't feel 
comfortable without more testing.  Not to mention we'd need an entirely 
new infrastructure on the server (which I'm working on) for auth, setup, 
and fine-grained permissions.  Also think of the impact on the i18n team...

There's also the question as to whether the rest of the devs even *want* 
to switch.  I'd be happy with it, but I won't try to speak for Olivier, 
Jasper, Benny, Nick, etc...

We can certainly revisit this in a few months, though, after we have a 
working git infrastructure on mocha and all the bugs have been ironed out.
