I know I'm much less into coding than other people here (which are probably 
far more knowledgeable), but in general the proposal seems very sane to me.

Assuming this proposal is accepted by the community at large, how can the 
community help as well? Meaning, is there anything that can be done, given 
that sysadmin resources are thin and already spread out?

That question aside, I have a question on the proposal itself: KDE uses both 
Git and SVN, so my question is what will be done to ensure smooth transition 
also of the SVN side (as the hooks are very old, IIRC, and do a lot of 
things).

Also, can Phabricator be configured to do what our "hooklib.py" does here? 
In particular license checks,source checks such as eol and so on?

Lastly, I assume that there is no plan to use the issue management of 
Phabricator for now, with the exact rationale of when Redmine was chosen 
(need to import existing database, size of said database...). I have no 
issue with it, but perhaps it should still be pointed out.

Thanks for all your work.
