Has anyone had a look at the gnu-arch revision control
system?  

It's highly distributed nature makes it ideal for the style
of development that nmh has. 

Have a look at http://wiki.gnuarch.org/

It seems interesting ... but I guess I don't see any compelling reason
to switch, personally.  I mean, I may be a slacker, but my turnaround time
for adding a new developer to savannah is usually pretty good.

I didn't mean to accuse anyone of slacking! :-)
Fact is though, no-one gets paid to maintain nmh and 
dropouts in activity have occurred, and sometimes that
out of your control anyway (gnu.org break-in)

With arch, everyone can keep hacking/commmiting/branching/
merging with each other and then merge in the 'main' repository
at some later time.  That's just the difference between
centralised and decentralised.

ps. i sent a another version of this mail but it's being 
held waiting for moderator approval  .. sigh.

Dealing with messages held in the moderator queue is way down on my list
of priorities.

Again, sorry for the apparent criticism!  It was my problem;
zip changed to zipworld and I have to be careful my mail
goes out with the correct from.

Matt
