So my question in a nutshell: Why shall we move away from the mainstream when the rest of the world (or most of) is quite happy with CVS or is moving to subversion? I'm not completely against it, but we should have very, very good reasons to do so.
Amongst other reasons mentioned by others, I prefer darcs 'cause it does not have database dependence and I heard enough stories of corrupted databases & subversion. (the same argument applies to Monotone as well.) Sincerely, Gour
Cheers, S.
P.S.: Yes, I'm aware of other development models like the one used for the Linux kernel, where CVS/subversion are not appropriate, but is fptools really a similar project? I don't expect hundreds of people working in a very distributed manner on extensions of e.g. a type checker... :-]
