You are the only one I know who would seriously think of keeping
video in their *source code* control system! Of course it's a
matter of perspective. What do we want to do with which tools?

When you say "integral part of the axiom src distribution" why
do you assume that it must be via subversion, cvs, Arch, etc.?

As far as I am concerning things like video belong on a web site.
As you said, this *is* the 21st century...
