I just did some work directly on the goff sources for the frst time in
years. No code changes, just some manual-page fixes to avoid
confusing doclifter.
It was pretty unpleasant. Can we please move the project to a VCS
that wasn't chipped from flint sometime in the Neolithic?
My preference would be git or hg. Some DVCS, anyway. I know the FSF
likes bzr but bzr's branching model make my head asplode.
I wrote a useful repo conversion tool a while back, and am willing
to do the grunt-work. I'd need admin privs on the Savannah project,
though.
