I'm not sure I fully agree with this.  The single point of failure exists in 
any system where w have an authoritative repository.  We could have an official 
git-svn mirror somewhere, or even a svn mirror using svncync that became the 
authoritative one when GNA was down if the only issue is being able to get at 
the code when gna is down.
