This is not true. There is a mingw port, which is starting to become usable.
However, I'm a bit mystified why windows support should be a priority for 
GUILE.

As for the user interface, it does have it's edges, but after a couple of
weeks it feels quite natural for common stuff (committing, pulling, pushing,
merging).  I do have to look at the manual for the more exotic commands 
(rebase, pickaxe, etc.)

Frankly, I think it's nuts not to go with a distributed system if 
transitioning away from CVS.  The only pertinent question is git or
mercurial.
