hi everyone!
i think a darcs.debian.org service would be very useful as a canonical
location for debian related darcs repositories. thanks for your efforts.
as the darcsweb maintainer i will limit my comments to the darcsweb
part below:

i think that the script actually works fine. the mistake causing the
problem described in the bug is invoking the script using "sh" as the
interpreter when "python" should be used.
is this approximately what you are looking for?
$ cd /tmp/
$ mkdir -p foogroup/barrepo
$ cd foogroup/barrepo
$ darcs init
$ cd /tmp/
$ export GROUP=foogroup REPO=barrepo
$ python /usr/share/doc/darcsweb/examples/mkconfig.py
"http://darcs.debian.org/http/repos/${GROUP}/${REPO}/"; "${GROUP}s -
darcs repository for ${REPO}" latin1 /tmp/${GROUP}/ >>config.py
$ cat config.py
class barrepo:
reponame = 'barrepo'
repodesc = 'foogroups - darcs repository for barrepo'
repodir = '/tmp/foogroup/barrepo'
repourl = 'http://darcs.debian.org/http/repos/foogroup/barrepo/'
repoencoding = 'latin1'

it would have been strange to package darcsweb when darcs-server was
already available if i didn't like it and think it was better. i hope
my example above will be useful in implementing darcs.debian.org ;)
cheers,
