Hi Andrea & all Here my 2 cents in reply to Andrea's proposal:
I just started using GIT a few months ago on another project, but it seems to me like the way to go: very flexible and designed just for massively distributed, open source software projects. There is a 'but' of course: the learning curve is steeper than CVS/SVN, and the administration complexer. I think that we would need at least 2 admins who know GIT well enough and can help in case of merge conflicts and who can generally support the wxCode community (e.g. branch issues, corrupt repositories) We might want to use gitolite (https://github.com/sitaramc/gitolite/) for the user/priviledge administration.
