Some of the discussion happened on django-core. One of the reasons for this was that it affects core developers most of all, so Adrian wanted their opinions first. Another reason was that this kind of change is almost certainly going to require a BDFL decision, because we will never come to consensus on Git vs Mercurial etc. - even within the core developers they are strong preferences in both directions, and even strong preferences to stick with Subversion. And I guess that's the reason that we didn't have further discussion on django-devs - since it already needed a BDFL decision, there was no point making the pretence of discussion in a wider forum. (Adrian/Jacob feel may correct me if I'm guessing wrongly). Luke -- "My capacity for happiness you could fit into a matchbox without taking out the matches first."
