<p>Just to mention, I, as an inexperienced programmer, never commited myself into svn and know only git, mostly just a casual user of ccl, have once had made a patch for a bug in ccl but didn't know how to send it to whoever developper. So I just made a bug report on Trac and discarded my patch. </p>

If anyone wants to import the CCL svn repository into git and host
it on github,<br>
what exactly is stopping them ?<br>
<br>
If there is some answer to that question - other than the fact that
no one has<br>
time or sees a clear benefit to doing so that would justify the
disruption that<br>
it would likely cause - I haven't heard it, and if there is some
technical reason<br>
I can't think of it.<br>
<br>
<br>
see <a href="https://help.github.com/articles/importing-from-subversion/" target="_blank">https://help.github.com/articles/importing-from-subversion/</a>, and
the url<br>
that that the tool referenced on that page wants is likely
<a href="http://svn.clozure.com/publicsvn/openmcl/" target="_blank"><http://svn.clozure.com/publicsvn/openmcl/></a><br>
<br>
Thanks for volunteering. Good luck, and please let us know how you
dealt with the issues that some people were trying to<br>
discuss.<br>
