Unless I've missed it, no-one else has spoken up and suggested what
the second VCS should be.  I'll have a play with darcs as soon as I
can, and talk with infra about whether we can support it or not.  Is
it okay if I come and pick your brains to help with this?

Absolutely.  This is one of the corner-stones of the project.

The only formallity is that the request will need to come from the
project lead listed on your project's page under
www.g.o/proj/<lang>/<project>/.  I need to talk to infra first, but in
principle I don't see a problem with project leads being allowed to
delegate that power.

Best regards,
