Do you have any reference on the decisions-making, I am always curious how projects switching from CVS select one of the may new vcs. hg has a lot of following.

Yes it is easy, you probably know all you need after 1 minute. > So in short, I'm not really welcoming this change (although I would > welcome a move to hg) but I'm not strongly opposed to it. Hey, from within DVC in Emacs it does not really make a difference and I really prefer the hosting on launchpad. Has proper rename support finally landed in hg?
