Being a work in progress, camp should probably be left to evolve on its

Ok. We can just grab bits and pieces. But I'd hope that the Darcs site become updated enough that there's no need to point people to Camp to learn about the theory of patches.

One point here is that Camp's theory of patches is by far the best documented and understood (by anyone but David) of any patch algebra we've had so far. It's not precisely what's implemented in darcs 2, though, so we have to be clear on the distinction if we pull bits of it into the Darcs site.
