Well, I have now spent a few hours looking at the available alternatives
and I am actually leaning towards Darcs (or possibly Monotone) instead
of Subversion. They are both distributed solutions and seems to fit us
better than a centralized solution.

(I rejected Arch due to high complexity and problems on Win32 or other
non POSIX platforms.

Yes, it is. If you give me a day or two I will try Darcs and see if I
can set it up at SqF to test.
