To get the Subversion repository up before the gathering, the proposed time to do the conversion is tomorrow (?) night, Wednesday at 22:00 UTC. The CVS repository will then be set to read-only to prevent commits getting lost. The conversion will take about 5 hours, so the new repository should if all goes well be accessible from around 04:00 UTC. I have written a small document at http://developer.skolelinux.no/dokumentasjon/subversion.html which describes the process, and it will also contain user info when things are sorted out.
