As spoken [here](https://discourse.itk.org/t/cmake-update/870/19):

> Great! Certainly, you will keep admin privileges. Since you are member of the InsightSoftwareConsortium GitHub Org, I think you should be able to transfer the repository, according to this documentation. Please let us know if you have any issues.

Some github [docs about transfer](https://help.github.com/articles/transferring-a-repository-owned-by-your-personal-account/).  
And as Matt [pointed out](https://help.github.com/articles/repository-permission-levels-for-an-organization/#creating-repositories), being a member of InsightSoftwareConsortium should be enough to transfer to it from a personal account.

But the existing fork in [ISC](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium) should be deleted first @dzenanz @matt.mccormick  
`InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKIsotropicWavelets already exists`

OK, I will rename it temporarily (until the transfer is complete), out of precaution.

Hitting: `InsightSoftwareConsortium already has a repository in the phcerdan/ITKIsotropicWavelets network`

From [docs](https://help.github.com/articles/about-repository-transfers/):

```auto
Before you transfer a repository, keep these things in mind:

    The target account must not have a repository with the same name, or a fork in the same network.

```

Maybe you can fork ISC/ITKIsotropicWavelets into your account temporarily and delete the renamed fork in ISC?

It worked! [https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKIsotropicWavelets](https://github.com/InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKIsotropicWavelets) has now all the PR and issues of the original repo.

I will check if I have kept write access…

EDIT: yes, I do 🙂
