I have two requests, if there is to be a 1.0.10 release:

  - make it understand what a darcs2 repository looks like, and emit a
    helpful error message explaining where to get darcs2 from.  Currently
    the error is something like "not a repository", which is likely
    to confuse people in the shift to darcs2.  Doing a new point release
    is a good opportunity to ease the upgrade path to darcs2.

  - look carefully at 'darcs get --partial'.  When I last tried 1.1.0pre
    on Windows it was getting a full repository.

Cheers,
        Simon
