I will not forbid anyone to work on this but IMO the time to handle mass migration is long past. Anything that still has subversion listed in its VCS is effectively unmaintained. If I were to take over one of those packages I would just use "gbp import-dscs" to recreate some partial history based on snapshot.debian.org and I would not put any more effort than this. Even if I wanted to take care of all those packages as QA work to increase their chance of someone taking over, I would do the same and move the new repositories in the debian namespace.
