dead link on "kawa mailing list archives"

[Per Bothner]

The first link on https://sourceware.org/ml/kawa/ points to
http://www.cygnus.com/~bothner/kawa.html . Ooops.
That should point to https://sourceware.org/kawa/ or alternatively
the actual home-page http://www.gnu.org/software/kawa

Kawa still uses Sourceware for the mailing list and Subversion.
I'm starting to get more fluent with Git (which I use for my
new project DomTerm https://github.com/PerBothner/DomTerm) so at
some point I might move Kawa fom Svn to Git (on either Sourceware
or Savannah.gnu.org, not GitHub),

Fixed (to point to the latter).

Thanks!

If you have a script or process that makes it trivial to convert from
Svn to Git, that would be a reason to stick to Sourceware.  Otherwise,
Savannah might make more sense, I suppose.  (When the time comes.)

AIUI it's pretty trivial already, whether using native git tools, or
esr's reposurgeon.  The only complication I know of is that some
projects try to improve their contributor-name database when they
switch to git, to go beyond 'userid' to 'userid@host Real Name',
and they may not have all the Real Names handy already.
