Speed. Performing git clones of svn repositories is extremely painful and wasteful of resources. I know we can make use of various mirrors for this, and I'd be fine with that as long as there's one that has something of an "officially sanctioned" designation and support. So far I haven't seen that for Parrot (but perhaps I'm simply out of date here). Pm _______________________________________________ http://lists.parrot.org/mailman/listinfo/parrot-dev
