What I meant here, and before that, will get too offtopic at the moment. Eventually I will have an article translated which I can reference in a text. (For those fluent in those two languages, this is what I mean: http://my.pages.de/convivenza.it , http://my.pages.de/convivenza.de ) In this case "has not been written": I'm thinking about a completely distributed version control system, serverless, but there are issues I do not understand at the moment and can not put my full attention to. I have some ideas outlined, and some annoyances every system I used so far had (namechanges for examples). This is also why I am packaging darcs to look at pijul and so on. > I suspect it is more a case of not being able to agree on one. > > I have found, in the past, that aegis is a great tool for managing the kind of > work we do.
