## Issues:
 - To follow up on the Subversion to GIT cutover from the last
   report: after a long tail of many small issues, it has gone
   smoothly, thanks to heavy efforts on Dawid Weiss' part to preserve
   our elaborate source control history.  We did our first release
   (5.5.0) based on GIT and that also seems to have gone well.
