IMO the right choice, given fossil's history, would be TCL, but any option we choose brings with it long-term dependencies or maintenance (if we embed a small interpreter like jimtcl or lua). To me jimtcl would be the obvious candidate, but i was told at some point that it has too many incompatibilities with standard TCL to be of interest to the harder-code TCLers. > d) extend user capabilities > > Some superuser can own/lock some files in central repository or at > least, in trunk.

It effectively offers up to 26 (or 52) roles, which is far more than projects of fossil's scale need. We could perhaps add a mechanism to allow clients to add letters to the permissions alphabet. Or toss out the mechanism and do something new. i think a full-fledged role management system would be way overkill, but if we're starting from scratch anyway... -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal
