cooperate or die

Let's, suspending our disbelief for the moment, on both these lists,
take the latest and greatest bk flamewar on lkml as indicative of
"where we should (both) be for 1.0". I know, you in svn-land have a
skillfully managed, very different plan in place. But, please, for
four more paragraphs, suspend your disbelief.

BK has a per-file, "annotate"-optimizing storage manager PLUS a rich
range of changeset+distribution+fancy-merging features.

`arch' has a really excellent take on
changeset+distribution+fancy-merging features.

`svn' has a really excellent architectural approach to a per-file,
"annotate"-optimizing storage manager.

I'm perfectly happy to stay in the current mutual animosity mode -- I
think arch would _eventually_ "win", but I still believe that there's
a deep potential well there that, if we fall into and suddenly start
cooperating, would lead to a brighter future for all involved.
