I've used both git and darcs before; and needless to say that the convenience of distributed version control is unbeatable. So yes, I for one, would love it if we actually use one of these modern VCS: Either git, darcs or bzr. Greg: If we do go in for a distributed system; we wouldn't need that extra hardware. Distributed systems like git are _designed_ to put minimal load on the server. If you think about it; there is no real server in distributed systems ;) -- Anant
