As for being able to restore, all repositories fit well onto a usual
local disk. And there is (or was) already a script to automatize the
backup of all repositories (a Makefile made by Carnë) in an extra
repository named 'octave-forge'. It only needs someone who regularly
thinks of it or scripts it as a cron job.

OK I just ran Carne's make file, and have a copy of what is there now.
I will try and keep it up to date.
Someone else should also do it. then we might be safe. :-)
