Is that the consensus?
>From the mails at the beginning of the group I got the impression that using a
versioning system made it unneccesary to use dpatch or similar, as diffs of
the stored files could be obtained easily from SVN. In fact, dpatch makes the
code quite confusing when you're analizing it.

evil?
