Fwd: DVCS platform at W3C

FYI,

In case anyone is interested, I imagine we could move our current
CVS-based efforts at spec development over to Mercurial.

I don't feel a strong need to move, since our active spec editing work
is almost done, but I thought I should mention it in case it matters to
others.

-Eric.

W3C is pleased to announce the availability of its new Distributed 
Version Control System, based on Mercurial [1].

If one wants to request a new repository, just send an email to 
sysreq@w3.org with the following informations:
* a name for the repository. You can find some examples on [2]
* a contact for this repository
* the groups that are allowed to push changes to this repository

Note all resources in Mercurial will be World readable. A group is 
actually a DBWG group [3]. You can specify several ones and this list 
can be updated later.
