I don't know why, but a lot of people I spoke to seemed to have that impression, and I essentially had to wave changelogs under their face to convince them that darcs was still being worked on *at all*. I had to point out that it was a *release* announcement -- how could a dead project have a new major version?
Perhaps a chirpy journalism major should be writing vapidly up-beat announcement posts, denying even the possibility of problems :-P
Correct me if I'm wrong, but... I was under the impression that Darcs is a revision control system. It controls revisions. Well Darcs already does that. So... what's to develop? It's not like it's slow or buggy. I can't actually think of any features it doesn't have that I want. So... what now? In case that sounds really negative and critical, let me phrase it another way: Given that Darcs is more or less perfect now, what's to add?
