migration of subversion to parrot.org

[Patrick R. Michaud]

Frankly, this sucks.

First, it would have been nice to have more than eleven hours'
notice for this.  Even a mention at yesterdays #parrotsketch
would have been useful.

Second, I had already discussed with Jerry (particle) that
Rakudo really ought to remain on perl.org's subversion server,
and *NOT* be migrated to parrot.org only to be migrated back
to perl.org again.

Lastly, the reason why Rakudo hasn't made any specific progress
towards moving out of the repo is because it was my understanding
that repository moves would be taking place _after_ the January
release, which isn't until next week.  I certainly hadn't seen
any announcements or discussion to the contrary.

Can we please postpone this until we get a chance to decide how
Rakudo should transition in all of this?  Moving Rakudo to a
new repository only to have it move yet again without having
an opportunity to warn Rakudo developers and users about the
change is... well... annoying.
