Big thanks for your very informative answers.

...The only real problem I see is that, with sourceforge svn you can't open a single branch for write access (IMO), so who has write access to the development branch has write access to main branch too

That means, I'm not alone who noticed that... Smile

So, branches are discouraged "not only by political but also by technical centralized autocratic upp project management nature and theIde version control unfriendliness"? like during good Soviet times Smile

So, only not very skilled users are welcome.

Because skilled ones, after facing U++'s theIde and libraries quite huge limitations will want to adjust it for their own needs and contribute, but instead, will be forced to waste time going through politics (as in most projects), also own branches maintenance hell due to theIde nature (which even can't follow symlinks and MS shortcuts as a possible mechanism for switching between those branches), or silently watch and wait, or even leave (where is hojtsy e.g?)?

Imagine an impact on U++ populiarity if it had its own made that versioning-merging tool we and many world programmers are all dreaming about!

Conclusions, or back to reality from all of yours points:
1. I can try (starting tonight) to create a separate public subversion repository with write access branches for all wanting to share contributions U++ friends, if
A. you really think that mercurial can't be used for a central repository role (and Linus is wrong, as he is about C++...)
B. Mirek or others can't offer any better alternatives soon.

What do you think?

P.S I'm convinced that a fork of U++ would be a huge waste of small resources, not comparable to a Mozart of C++ (Mirek) and should be forgotten until Mirek is alive Smile
