Gitorious Apocalypse: plan to switch to self-hosted Kallithea for copyleft.org

As many have seen and I need not link discussion to, I think, Gitorious
will disappear on 2015-05-31. I'll need to transition copyleft.org to
something else by then.
My plan is to set up a Kallithea instance on copyleft.org as a
replacement. I'm scheduling that work for sometime in early May, I
suspect. If anyone would like to help, please let me know.
I am, BTW, simply not going to go with some other hosting service.
Someone [0] pointed out that "no hosting service is too big to fail":
Google Code and Gitorious both disappeared in the last two weeks.
I think self-hosting is the only option for now. There is talk of
some work on federated project hosting services, and I will follow those
and copyleft.org may participate, but I suspect those will be long-term
solutions, not a short-term solution for the Gitorious Apocalypse.
