Choices to consider
== Unofficial repositories ==
*  Subversion - default choice, and the obvious "safe" choice.  Pros: familiar to us, used by a lot of people  Cons: very centralized model; need to give people access to facilitate effective collaboration
*  Mercurial - bleeding edge choice.  Pros: Distributed model makes it easier for anyone to distribute patchsets off of the main codebase without needing a central host.  Much easier to maintain a private branch.  Cons: more complicated model, less familiar, much newer system (I've never used it, just received a recommendation) [http://www.selenic.com/mercurial/]
