The community as a whole cares about having them all migrated to github. 
I'm sure this will happen the next time there's a sprint, just like lots 
of them got migrated (and subsequently deleted) at the zope4 sprint in 
San Francisco a few years back.

We need man-hours, sure, but not champions. Being blocked on working on 
the code because you're the first one to care about a package and 
subsequently have to learn how to do the migration is a crazy way of 
doing things.
