*Especially* with their "everything is in Arch" philosophy. There are good reasons that people may choose Subversion or Darcs instead. Every VC I've ever used falls flat on its face in certain common scenarios, and Arch is no more a silver bullet than Darcs, Subversion, or CVS. I would be very pleased to have Ubuntu folks track my Darcs repositories. But at the same time, I don't *expect* them to. Sending me diffs as wishlist bugs is still fine. Just don't expect me to dig out arch and try to apply Arch diffs to my darcs repos. Isn't going to happen. -- John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
