I do prefer the Github issue tracker and web interface in general, but I
have only dabbled very little in actually using git and am not comfortable
with it. On the other hand I've used Subversion for a decade and I'm very
comfortable with it. I'm aware Github lets you access a Git repository as
if it were a Subversion repository, and that may be an intermediate
solution I could explore at some point, however right now moving to Github
would take time and would not provide me with much benefit that I can see,
and there's no problem with keeping the project at Google Code, so that's
where it's staying until I get motivated otherwise.

If you have proposed changes to Canviz, please discuss them on the
discussion group first.

FYI -- we created a github fork and added some updates we wanted.

Given Google's announcement yesterday that Google Code is shutting down
later this year, I'll be revisiting this matter in the coming months.
Google offers a migration tool, but the complication is that the canviz
Subversion repository currently contains two projects, canviz and path, and
also copies of some third-party libraries. I will want canviz and path to
become separate git repositories at GitHub, ideally with all of their
history. I will have to see if I can use svndumptool to separate the two
projects into two Subversion repositories before importing to GitHub.
