So BZR would probably (have not investigated, but from the SVN docs it appears) excel above SVN in the same primary way it excels above CVS: it makes doing parallel repository development easier. But, as has been shown, one can do that with Drupal without converting Drupal's repository. People have already done it. Would this advantage be worth changing Drupal's core and contrib repos? Or are the downsides of going completely to BZR too big?
There are two things I would like to see from my point of view as a contrib CVS maintainer: - making each project a separate repository which would allow the principle owner to allow or deny write access to other account holders. - having a web front end for the upload of new files or revisions. Any software that can do this is a managable way will be my favourite for any conversion. Integration with drupal.org is of course also mandatory. Cheers, Gerhard
