We could also drop support for doing a check with any version control systems other than subversion. (Another note that probably belongs on another ticket: just because we have an svn repository doesn't mean we have an svn binary: see tortoiseSVN on windows.). I would prefer to keep our infrastructure geared towards the one version control system we *have* to support; There's no problem with folks using other front ends to the system, of course, but it's all subversion in the end. (That said, didn't we already solve the svk issue elsewhere? If so, no harm in piggy-backing on that.) -- Will "Coke" Coleda
