I'm definitely positive to a migration to Subversion, but I'd be really concerned about using plain text authentication mechanisms.

We won't use plain text, but we may (or, we currently do) use basic auth over ssl. The security then is in the passwords, so we have to make sure they're generated securely.

We should have enough man powers to come up with some secure solution here :).

Volunteers (i.e. those with actual free time to give on implementing any solution) are definitely welcome.
