If I understod right some talks on #ruby-lang it seem that subversion,
while being generally better than cvs, still suffer from the basic
problem of being a centralized VCS.

BitKeeper and gnuarch OTOH, allows multiple fork/branch of the same
project to live in diferent places, but still allowing re-merge of the
branches at any time.

This is interesting:

Btw, matz just said in ruby-core 2730 that ruby development will
switch to using DARCS, I wonder if this relates to his choice to adopt
the glasgow haskell compiler has the default backend for Rite.
