Well, maybe we should distinguish between newcomers to the team and newcomers to VCS. A newcomer to the team could master one VCS, two or none of them, so it's impossible to know his (or her) preferences in advance. For a newcomer to VCS I really think that svn is easier to learn than git/hg/bzr but that's just my opinion. I think the priorities should be, first of all the personal preferences of top commiters, and secondly what we think could be helpful for newcomers.
