First: thanks a lot to Russel for pointing us (at least me) to DVCS and pushing
the issue. It got me hooked.


I am not sure you want to go there. Bazaar can interwork as a DVCS with
a Subversion repository, Git cannot.

Well, not sure what "interwork" means but git is able to sync with svn -
but that process is slow and needs additional work for every "push"
(if you don't use a commit hook, but that raises other issues...).

rebase is your friend and your
enemy. rebase stops any sane DVCS workflow with a Subversion repository
in the equation.

I would say that rebase is cool as long as you're working locally. As soon as any affected commit is published, it becomes dangerous - no matter what the public repo is
(git or svn). Not sure about hg and bzr in this respect.

On this issue Bazaar is the only choice.

As soon as we move to a DVCS, I would delete the svn repo. Honestly!

A bit OT but does that mean there are official git repos for grails and groovy ?

Not yet for Grails, but we are considering it. We already have a
mirror on GitHub, so we just need to turn that into a two-way scheme
where changes are pushed back to Subversion.

Cheers,

Peter
