I don't know how much work it is for Felix to keep the svn up-to-date.
Releasing snapshots on a regular basis is good enough for me, I basically
use release versions of Chicken anyway.  The point isn't that *I* can't
use darcs, the point is that darcs doesn't work on all platforms, so
"forcing" people to use darcs is not a smart move.
As long as the egg repository stays subversion, I will be happy.
But I still don't understand why Chicken as a project has to use two
different versioning systems (or two separate repositories for eggs
& chicken, for that matter).
