IMHO: I've found git hard for new developers to get used to, ditto bzr. svn is still the best choice for projects with small code bases like owfs. I think it is more important to provide a soft landing for newbies than for the more powerful distributed features and branching provided by other systems. Another FS project I'm involved in switched from svn to bzr and we're still trying to iron out issues. 1 vote for svn :) njh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Palm PDK Hot Apps Program offers developers who use the Plug-In Development Kit to bring their C/C++ apps to Palm for a share of $1 Million in cash or HP Products.
