Well, I think we should move. If we do then we can make whatever
decisions we want regarding SSH etc.. Regarding subversion - I just
wanted to mention that we could switch to something better - and perhaps
Arch would be a better choice btw. But I don't think we should do the
switch right now - let's move first. :)

We will also move the  downloadable files and mack up some simply
frontend for them, a Swiki or similar is perhaps the "simplest thing".

I could take a look at this at the earliest tonight. But I will only do
it if people speak up and say "Yes please!". :) No point in putting in
time if we don't all agree.

And of course, if someone else could spend the time I would be really
grateful - I really, really need to sit down with SM instead and I have
no daytime to spare.
