Also please note that these repos are READ ONLY for now. Nobody will be accepting darcs patches until Simon (or someone) gives the word.
When that does happen, it'd be great if the repos specified a default 'darcs send' email address so that people do not have to guess where to send their patches.
Yes, they will. Simon is thinking of having that be the appropriate cvs-*@haskell.org list. Right now, this isn't happening because there is no good place to send them.
I think the cvs-* lists are fine.
Speaking of which: how long do we want to keep this interim arrangement before switching to darcs completely?
I'm not sure yet! So far I haven't used it in anger enough, though as Duncan points out it's hard to really use it until we can commit darcs changes using darcs. Certainly performance of the --partial tree seems good enough, though I don't like that I can't see the history for individual files. I can't get browsing to work using Trac: with the full darcs repository it takes too long to do anything (like 10 seconds to bring up a directory), and with the --partial one it can't browse propely, presumably because there isn't per-file history. Cheers, Simon
