Dump it, copy it where ever you want and afterwards use svnsync to
keep it a current read only mirror until you are able to switch to the
new repo.

Using svndumpfilter means that you need to checkout a new working copy
for everything you have working copies now. Not only users, even build
systems or whatever.

Depending on when you did the last dump-load-cycle of your repos, it
may be enough to just create new repos as current versions of svn
provide representation sharing of binaries which may save you a lot of
space. Just test it locally.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
