Well I might try the two way some time to see if it help me with
accepting patches from external contributors via darcs send.

I don't think we'll want to let the script loose on our cvs repo. I'd do
all cvs commits manually.

Inertia. :-) We'll see how it goes.

Myself, I'd want to make sure that darcs can deal with a repo of the

be interested to watch how the fptools/ghc conversion goes. That'd give
me more confidence.
