Common-lisp.net, where elephant is hosted, offers SVN as a standard service, <BR>
and we might have to install and support darcs ourselves.<BR>
<BR>
(Personally, I'll support whatever Ian decides. I've tried to use Darcs and subversion,<BR>
and can't really see enough of a difference with CVS to matter --- but then I used CVS<BR>
in a job for a long time, so I am quite familiar with it.)<BR>
