read-only (in the sense that changes on svn would not be automatically
propagated on git) is possible, see:
http://marc.info/?l=git&m=122504133928573&w=2

For that we would need:
 - decide which branch or branches will be exported to svn (it looks
   like you need one svn repo per git branch)
 - a place for the svn repo (I don't know how easy or difficult would be 
  to add it to sip-router.org)
 - some tested script that would automatically (on git push) or
 periodically (cron) push the changes to the svn repo (git svn dcommit).

So volunteers would be highly appreciated :-)


In the meantime for everyday use see:
