I think we should *first* merge build-improvements and wh-sandbox
to define a new "Silver" /trunk at SourceForge. Delete the old
/silver branch as SourceForge.

I don't think we can simply re-population with all the history
at SourceForge. The result would likely be too large again. I
would prefer to reset to 0 and then simply import the source
(minus the history) from the new "Silver" /trunk at SourceForge.
