I can't think of a I think it's pretty simple: - is there a ViewCVS equivalent for Arch ? - is there a PCL-CVS equivalent for Arch ? - is there a vc-arch.el ? - is arch available on all the platforms used by Emacs developers and other people trying things out via the anon-CVS repository ? Don't get me wrong, I think arch is really cool. But I think before trying to get us to switch to arch, you should help us write vc-arch.el. I've recently cooked up vc-mcvs.el and vc-svn.el in a pretty short amount of time. I haven't had the time to do it for vc-arch.el, but it should be pretty easy if you follow the same pattern: take vc-cvs.el (or vc-svn.el), do s/cvs/arch/ on the file to start with and then fix things. I'd be happy to help, of course. Stefan
