[Gajim-devel] Switch Gajim source repository to DVCS

[Nikos Kouremenos]

not that I hack anymore on Gajim but I am always against DVCS and their
ideas and especially on projects with small amount of contributors such as
Gajim.

I strongly believe that SVN rocks and also for you to commit upstream and
keep it centralized and great. On big projects this "must commit your hd
changes" every day or two is close to commiting suicide. But Gajim needs
this way of thinking to go forward, to push more releases. You can see the
problem if you look in svn brances that were abonded or were partially
commited to the trunk.

Again those issues and worries I express are not for Gajim. Try

If Yann and rest of the active devs have decided Gajim needs the D then it's
ok :)

Happy hacking
