Could have been sooner certainly. I had my doubts about even suggesting this proposal, but then I thought spending few minutes reading it wouldn't hurt much. I think mercurial [0] could be a good option. It's a well known distributed VCS, maybe not as spread or known as git, but it's fulfilling most if not all general users aspirations. I find it generally speaking easier to use than git and the move from those used to SVN should be less painful. There's at least a specific host site for mercurial projects [1] but there may be others. Mercurial provides an extension called "convert" able to translate from another VCS, among them SVN. But there's also a mercurial client for SVN repos [2], this should be the equivalent to git-svn. Pushes can be done, either by ssh or by https, which should address proxy issues. It also provides a graphical interface based on the spreaded TortoiseSVN, which is actually called TortoiseHg [3]. Since Mercurial is almost totally written in python, it's multiplatform, as well as TortoiseHg. Also google code is supposed to also accept Mercurial repositories [4] but I'm not sure about the state of this and the urgency suggests that this is not a clear path to follow. I could find out something about this if there is interest. I just wanted to drop this information, forgetting about typical flames, for the sake of completeness. Feel free to thrash it if you think it's too late of useless. Regarding the mailing list point, in case Google groups are found useful, something I'm not totally sure about, they may complete the total move to Google code once it provides general Mercurial hosting.
