Well, a first step would be to first document the proposal, discuss it,
then later have agreement from other packagers, see how it will impact
the bs ( ie, what part will need to be changed ), do the change on code
( repsys, web interface, install a git viewer, and change on mdvsys
too ), and do the conversion ( which may requires some tests, and lots
of time, and some down time ( so this also requires coordination )).
And also update the documentation.
Provided that someone indeed step to do all of this, I see no reason to
not have it happen. if no one does, then it won't, as simple as that :)
Beware, this can take quite a lot of time
( <A HREF="http://lwn.net/Articles/409635/">http://lwn.net/Articles/409635/</A> ).
But for the moment, of course, the priority is to setup a replica
( minus some minor cleaning ) of Mandriva build system.
So such change will have to wait ( in the event someone already did the
hard work in secret with ready to apply patches and already converted
repository ).
