Hi all,

now that Paul asked - what do you guys think about the technical aspects?

I'm personally not adverse to SVN, it would make some things we face with the
GPE tree much easier - e.g. we could sort the modules more easily. Currently
more or less everything is in the base subdir. Subversion should be quite stable
and is quite similar to CVS from the users point of view.

But i'd like to have some more opinions about this - are there important reasons
not to use SVN?

A similar situation we have with the bugtracker, something we should have set up
quite some time ago. We have several choices - all with advantages and
disadvantages.

- Bugzilla:
  Well known to developers and users. It would allow to trade bugs from
distributions to upstream development.

- GForge bugtracker:
  Good integration with GForge but just another tracker people need to learn to use.

- Trac or CVSTrac bugtracker:
  Good integration with SCM and quite easy to use.

I suppose we have some opinions :-)

Greetings

Florian
