Ahh, yep, this tis be the general way OpenSource works.  Maybe designing some
kind of patcher for now, that will update critical files, may be required, till
an official decision on SVN has been made.  Heck, even a simple patcher That only
downloads the required files for the distro, can work, for thoes who want to keep
their distros of Euphoria up to date, without having to require having a SVN
Client.

If your interested Rob, I can whip up a Simple Patcher that'll patch core files,
so that you can include it with 3.0.1, that way, people don't have to keep
downloading the entire package to get things that are just updated.  This
ofcourse wouldn't be a replacement for SVN, just a secondary solution for thoes
who don't want to mess with SVN, and compiling, all that nice stuff, but want to
keep the latest version.

Ideas? ^.^
