== Question 1 ==

First, a Git-related question, which kdegames devs may proabbly skip: The 
proposed ruleset describes one monolithic kdegames repository. Is this what 
has been agreed upon?

I remember discussions about repo structure, but I was not subscribed to scm-
interest in these days, so I did not follow the conversation closely. I could 
not find any clear decision in the mailing list archives. If there is a 
decision, it would be nice if you could guide me/us to it.

(Please, do not turn this thread into a discussion on this question as long as 
it is cross-posted on kde-games-devel. Thanks.)

== Question 2 ==

Now for the "social" side of things: From what I see, nearly all active 
kdegames developers (i.e. Parker, Wolfgang and me) are git-svn users already.

Because our module is also fairly inactive (at least compared to the big ones 
like kdebase or kdevelop), it could be used as a "guinea pig" for moving a 
whole module to Git, just like Amarok and Konversation were the first 
applications moving to git.kde.org. Is such a testing ground needed, and if 
yes, would everyone from the kdegames devs be okay with the move?
