I strongly disagree with this. IMO especially for Extragear projects
(like Konversation, Choqok, etc) now is the perfect time to move.
Everything is ready, the move is painless, and the projects can take
full benefit of Git's advantages.

Any single day lost is one day too much. Time is of the essence with
software development (well, with anything, really), and when you wait
too long with getting stuff done, well, then you have waited too long.
