Interview: David Roundy of Darcs Revision Control

Posted by samzenpus on from the what-did-he-say dept.

comforteagle writes "In the aftermath of our last interview with Tom Lord, regardless of personalities, it became apparent that the idea of decentralizing CVS is a big deal. Many mentioned darcs as an alternative to Arch. Mark Stosberg has interviewed project head-hancho David Roundy about darcs, his 'theory of patches,' what's next, and on using Haskell for the project."

    When do you move to your own RCS ro support it's own code? Kinda like bootstrapping the RCS? I really have no idea what i mean, but yeah, you get the idea. Did ARCH start out in a CVS somewhere? and where was bitkeeper kept in its infant days?
