I think GIT is overkill and I prefer using SVN, but I don't have a 
serious problem with GIT,
so GIT gets my vote as it seems the popular choice.

We've always been known as a Sourceforge project.... has anyone used GIT 
at SF and run
into problems solved by using github?

I assume we could simply copy the current git repository to SF and then 
it could sync against
SF and use SF for commits, if that's what we wanted to be "primary".

So basically, is there a reason to move off SF?

Wherever we move, the release script will need to be re-written.... we 
can try and get one
more CVS release out if someone has a need, or just switch to git almost 
immediately.
