I would like to suggest moving the official home of pydot to github, and converting the repository from svn to github. The advantages of git over svn are widely accepted and in support are the number of projects that have migrated to git, and many to github from both googlecode and sourceforge.

Other major advantages will be:

  1. there is a community there that will soon send pull requests with updates, open issues reporting bugs and discuss. There already exist unofficial mirrors and forks of pydot on github. So this will encourage people to push their improvements upstream.
  2. github interface ergonomics and popularity are not comparable to googlecode.
  3. issue tracking is superbly implemented on github.

In case people are needed to help with this, I would be happy to do so. From: https://code.google.com/p/pydot/issues/detail?id=95
