+1, but I'd like to take one step at a time. Especially since we'd need
Thiago to do the conversion (or somebody else) as it might require
read-access to the svn repository on the machine it resides. (at least
thats how amarok converted).

I'm not sure about the actual scheme we should/could be using, but thats
something to discuss once we do use git.
