I've put up with CVS for collaborative projects, but I have found darcs makes projects a lot more pleasant and productive. See: http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/WorkFlowsVsSubversion and http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/SpontaneousBranches (which I mostly wrote). I see that PgFoundry allows ssh access. It would be easy to install a private copy of darcs there, if is allowed. Further, because darcs is distributed it is not fully necessary to have a central server. Contributors can publish their own tree in personal website, and/or use "darcs send" to email patches to others. The "darcs pull" command allows you to specify multiple other repos at once. So, if there were two other developers, you could update both their contributions at once. In summary, I would willing to collaborate via CVS, but I don't want to give on the possibility of using darcs just yet. However, the collaboration actually happening, not the tool choice, is the main thing. I'll go along with CVS if pursuing darcs more seems like too much hassle to you.
