Ok, I'll bite. The most important thing wrt choosing a VCS is that it is one
that our maintainer (that would be Erik) is happy with. It's unlikely
that abcl will have massive parallel branch development, so the
possible shortcomings of SVN aren't likely to bite abcl development, nor
are the benefits of a DVCS likely to be reaped.

When there are more (much more) committers, this issue is maybe worth
discussing again - in the meantime, SVN is fine.

Just my 0.02.
