According to the calendar (http://www.boost.org/community/index.html), it is time to turn off write access to the Subversion repo.
Are there any showstoppers?
Will this mean boost-sandbox as well?
Yes. My understanding of the conversion process is that it treats the svn repo as a whole, including the sandbox.
Some of us planning converting sandbox items to GIT might find it easier if we could use Subversion until we are fully GITerated?
Have you read "Moving Sandbox Libraries to GitHub"? https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/wiki/ExtractSandbox Give it a try. Remember that it is trivial to delete a repo from your GitHub account, so you can do the conversion and play around with the resulting GitHub repo to develop confidence. The just delete the GitHub repo and to the conversion for real. HTH, --Beman
