I did some rough calculations and we are porting about 29 pkgs/day.
At this rate it will take roughly 30 days to have all packages ported to
ModX.

spyderous wants it tomorrow,
HalycOn wants it when all is ported.

A (perhaps overly) simple solution is to split the difference.

In 15 days ModX goes ~arch. 8 February
