I remain in favour of phasing out SVN in favour of Git.
For Walther: I find Git much more intuitive than Mercurial, but thankfully there are bidirectional bridges between the systems, so one can always use their preferred one.

The original idea was to experiment with github but port the changes to svn on SourceForge. In practice the git repository has got a bit ahead and there are quite a few changes that I need to apply to bring svn into line. I had in mind keeping svn going as far as the next release but I'm wondering about that now. Having two "official" repositories is complicated.
What are people's opinions about phasing out SVN in favour of Git?
Why not use Mercurial instead of Git, which can do as much as Git but is simpler to use for novices?
