I've offered to help with this, but things are so poorly documented that
I have to guess where things are, and I'm not one that's used either
site.

I do have a bunch of sysadmin knowledge, and script writing ability, but
knowledge of how each is set up, is resident in a very small minority of
the
folks that help run things.

I have Pervasive's blessing to spend paid time working on "community"
projects,
and this could be one of them, but every time I try to get more
information about
how things on BOTH gborg and pgfoundry are set up, it takes days, and
lots of the
people have no idea how it is set up.

I truly *WANT* to help here, but getting the information is tough.

Larry,

I don't have any knowledge of gborg, but I do have pretty good knowledge
of how everything works on pgfoundry. Feel free to ping me on IRC or via
email if you have questions.

I am as impatient as everyone to get this done.

cheers

The thing is, I thought that the scripting work for this was already done?
Since we're doing CVS->CVS and mailman->mailman, the only major scripting
effort was required on the gborg-sql -> pgfoundry-sql side of things,
which I *thought* was already written, just needed alot of testing?
