Hello,
since Oct 4th [1], Alioth supports darcs repositories in the same way
as the other VCSs. debchekcout already supports retrieveing a darcs
repository. The attached patches adds authentication mode support for
darcs repositories, for both group and personal repositories.
About the latters, two different solution can be implemented.
1) the first one is to keep the darcs.d.o status quo, i.e. the
personal repositories are linked as
http://darcs.debian.org/~$USER/$REPO
and debcheckout applies the attached patch, which optionally check
for write authorization on the remote repository. This means that
the local user is the one that owns the remote repository.

2) the second solution implies a change in the way darcs.d.o handles
personal repositories, moving to something similar to git.d.o, i.e.
http://darcs.debian.org/users/$USER/$REPO
In this case, the substitution is very simple, but I think that at
least the local/remote user check is necessary.
