I've started looking at the first piece of the pipeline, reading from a
remote subversion URL. I stumbled upon rsvndump[2], which is
GPLv3+ licensed and promises to produce a Subversion dump from
a remote repository. This could be piped to my utility,
svn-dump-fast-export[3], to produce suitable input for git fast-import.

In the latest version of my proposal, I've proposed to write a
mirroring tool which will basically be a stripped down version of
svnsync [1]. For testing, I therefore recommend that you use svnsync
instead of rsvndump because the former is included in the official
source tree. If however, you do a comparison and find that rsvndump is
actually a better alternative, let me know.

I believe this would address the first two components of Ram's.
proposal and allow more focus to be given to the interesting ones.
That's presuming that I have a feature-complete release by the time
the GSoC project begins.

That's fantastic! I suspect you haven't looked at the latest revision
of my proposal. Since Gmane doesn't seem to have indexed it, I just
sent you a mail off the list.
