I improved the Attic main page to clarify the 2 main options to leave the Attic
= fork outside ASF or recreate at ASF
Clearly, the previous flat 4 options were not helping at they should

on helping with Attic site, svn does not help much providing patches: I'll ask 
infra to create a svn2git mirror so we'll be able to get PRs
We'll see later if/how we switch to Git first: this will at least imply to 
change CI and site publication, perhaps other automation, so we need to go step 
by step

On documenting the mechanical steps to bringing back a project, I feel that it 
won't be used much, then will not be ready when necessary (in 5 years?).
Sebb created ATTIC-206 for the only real problem we had: removing files in the 
site has currently to be manual, it would be nice if it could be automatic.
Everything else is really just undoing what was done during the move to Attic, 
and is so exceptional that I don't see much value in writing.
But once we have a Git mirror, this will provide PRs and review process, 
perhaps there will be good PRs proposed, finding the right balance

Hervé
