> If, like Anthony states, github can rewire the project nesting later, then I'll go ahead and just create a couple of projects under my account. I'll give those svn2git utils a try as well. I'd like to get the history in rather than just leave it in SVN. I'll leave the SVN projects intact and mark them as deprecated somehow.
