If you pretend to propose RDB to Boost why don't use the sandbox? Vicente Because I often work disconnected from the internet, and I got used to distributed scms like BitKeeper and Darcs. I want to be able to record small changes while on the train to work for example.
FWIW, there are tools (e.g. svk and git-svn) that let you access an svn 'backend' but make commits without the Internet too.
There is also a well-maintained git mirror with several clones: http://gitorious.org/boost it isn't darcs, but then again (iiuc, could be wrong) ghc itself is going to git for performance reasons. Gitorious is nice as it makes it really easy to set up clones and trade commits. Different topic: I recently started playing with the erlang distributed database 'mnesia' which has a really, really nice database DSEL based on list comprehensions. I'm very impressed. It looks like one could put something like this together with proto. You might check it out for design ideas. -t
