Hi folks,

I am currently somewhat on the team but have not done anything.  The 
main issue I have is darcs, I just find it waay to problematic to use.  
If the packages were moved to say git or svn I might be able to pick up 
some of the slack (though I am no lisp expert by any stretch :(  ).

Thanks,
