As you probably know, there is a mirror of the GHC source tree in a darcs repository. (information about accessing the darcs repository is here: http://cvs.haskell.org/trac/ghc/wiki/GhcDarcs).
The aim is to eventually switch over to using darcs for our revision control. The point of this message is to find out what constraints people have that will affect when we can throw the switch.
It doesn't look like we'll be able to keep a CVS mirror going once we switch to darcs, so darcs will be the only way to get an up-to-date GHC source tree.

Malcolm, Ross - since you both also use the CVS libraries tree, is it going to be possible for you to switch to using darcs to get the libraries? Any idea how long you'll need?
No problem for me if you switch over at any time. But how about having a separate repository for each library package?
