Howdy all,

Over on the debian-mentors mailing list, a prospective package
maintainer is asking for help.

    <URL:http://lists.debian.org/msgid-search/200811100350.59540.bss03@volumehost.net>
    Message-Id: <200811100350.59540.bss03 at volumehost.net>

    I'm soliciting suggestions as to what DVCS to use, and what Debian-specific 
    tools I might want to familiarize myself with when using that VCS.  On top of 
    all that I wouldn't mind some suggestions of workflows that have worked well 
    for other maintainers using a DVCS.  URLs appreciated.  RTFM accepted, but 
    please let me know where the manual is at.

Anyone who is a Debian package maintainer using Bazaar, please head
over to that thread (subscribe to the list) and give much-needed
advice and recommendations for why Bazaar is a good choice of DVCS
tool for Debian package maintenance.
