Although it is possible to use hg/bzr/svn in parallel within a project and a buildout, I am completely against having a mixture of SVN+HG or SVN+BZR within a Plone project (where Zope stuff is coming from BZR or HG) and the Plone stuff from SVN..if we want/need to switch away from SVN then all other related projects should switch as well.
