| Here is how I see the situation:
|
| | | | |
| | | darcs and |
| | next big = hg mirrors |
| | experiment | |
| gold | / |
| gold <---- | / |
| (52) silver (SourceForge) <=====> Google Code
| | mirror
| |\___merge___ |
| gold <---- | \ | |
| (51) |\__ | | |
| / \ back | darcs and |
| gold <---|-<----\ .....> / = hg mirrors |
| (50) / / port | | |
| | | | | |
| Now: silver trunk build
| | | improvements
| tla | /
| | /
| | /
| gold <------ trunk
| (49) |
| CVS
