Sérgio, while I don't have experience with the CVS to Git migration portion of this process, I do have experience setting up a Kerberized private Koji instance (https://messinet.com/rpms/, https://messinet.com/koji/) with a Git SCM backend, external repository support, and virtual machine buildsystems. I also have experience in creating the supporting tools to automatically sign the packages and create the repositories. I might be able to help in this initiative. Where are these "chats" about the migration occurring?
