So we should consider it because it is an excellent system... I don't know what that means, in precise, day-to-day usage terms (i.e. what precisely would it do for us that, say, Subversion can't do). >>I think anything but Subversion is ruled out because: >>- there is no offer to host that anywhere (for subversion, there is >> already svn.python.org) > > > We could host a Perforce repository just as easily, I would think. Interesting offer. I'll add this to the PEP - who is "we" in this context? >>- there is no support for converting a CVS repository (for subversion, >> there is cvs2svn) > > > I'd put $20 on the fact that cvs2svn will *not* work out of the box > for converting the python repository. Just call it a hunch. You could have read the PEP before losing that money :-) It did work out of the box. Regards, Martin
