See git://thyrsus.com/repositories/gcc-conversion.git for the current
version of the conversion machinery, including a TODO list (and see also
http://esr.ibiblio.org/?p=7959 ).
Presumably required work on the GCC side (deciding appropriate policies on
branch deletion / non-fast-forward pushes, developing hooks / repository
configuration to implement those policies and send commit mails, writing
updates to documentation and scripts) could be done in parallel with the
conversion work, but Jason may already have some of that done anyway.
