I'll add in a vote for Mercurial (voting always seems to
be how to<br>
decide on VCS), though I still believe that SVN works
better for a<br>
contribution/review/patch workflow.<br>

Distributed version control systems are very good for
distributed development (funny that). Whilst I'm not proposing
we use bzr (I would *very* much like us to use mercurial
though), our workflow at Canonical with bzr and launchpad is
great. You develop in a branch (branching is very easy with
dcvs') and push to launchpad. On requesting a merge review you
get a great web interface with viewable diff and when the
merge is approved you merge back onto trunk. (Branching and
merging are substantially easier with hg / bzr / git than with
svn.)<br>

<div>(From the peanut gallery). One potential benefit to having
the project live at Canonical is that Michael works there, and
Canonical may be interested in helping officially support it.

Hehe, I certainly can't speak for canonical on that score... :-)<br>
