Matts (email not shown publicly) I work for MessageLabs [messagelabs.com] in Toronto, ON, Canada. I write spam filters, MTA software, high performance network software, string matching algorithms, and other cool stuff mostly in Perl and C.
I started playing with darcs this week. It's nice - it solves all the problems of CVS, doesn't require a big server installation, and has very friendly command lines. It should be more popular.
One thing I really like about svk is that it can choose to present itself as a "single stack of revisions" monolithic system, or as a "multiple stacks, star-merged back and forth" decentralized system, or even a "shallow stack of patch chains, swapped freely" system, based on the current needs of the user.
Also see svk. :-) (Score:2)

Is there a PAR?

There is prebuilt binary for Win32 and OS X, and packages for mandrake, RH, fink and debian. See InstallingSVK [elixus.org] for details.
I'd be glad to help producing a PAR binary for your OS if there's no packages/ports for it.
