[svn] Alexandria: migrate or archive?
I can't remember, are we going to migrate Alexandria over to SVN, or treat
it like jakarta-site, jakarta-site-old and other obviously dead modules.
If we want to migrate it, does anyone mind me just going ahead and doing
so?

I'd tar up the CVS module and make it available for download from
archive.apache.org - that way it is still available to archeologists.
Over in Ant land we did the same for the ant-anatidote module.
Oh, formally I am an alexandria committer 8-)

For Alexandria, migration would be an appropriate scheme. I can't say
that this is true for all effective dead projects, however.

I'm in favour of migrating it. There may well be stuff that people want
to go back and look into over the next few years. That will be difficult
when Apache no longer provides CVS access....
The site stuff is different; there's no obvious reason for looking at
the history of any of that, or retrieving any old versions.
Please go ahead.
Cheers,
Simon
