That's true, I agree.

Yes, I've never done the migration (I did it only from subversion to
mercurial). It should be easier with mercurial to git though. A quick
search brought these links up:

hg-to-git: http://git.grml.org/?p=hg-to-git.git;a=summary

somebody's experience:
http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/36601


Anyways, the argument for migrating is to attract new developers? Are
you sure this would be the case? Is it worth the trouble?

Also, you have to know that we'll have to coordinate the merges of our
individual patches first (before doing the migration). Otherwise it will
complicate matters a bit.

Best,
