That's exactly what I asked the transition period for.  I'll do this
asap.  I only need the little period for people to catch up and do it.
As long as the majority switches, it's all fine.

Since you enabled svn:// on the old box, I can already roll a version
out this weekend, so people are told to switch.  At the same time I can
update the bootstrap images/snapshot and scripts to use the new scheme,
and install a prefix-portage that uses/supports the new scheme.

Thanks.
