R devel - Mar 2013 - Mirroring R on a DVCS

Hi,

I have been looking at mirroring the SVN R repository into a DVCS 
(Mercurial, Git, bzr, etc...).

The idea would be to have that as an always up-to-date untouched master 
(a mirror) but having it in a DVCS would make forks easier to make and 
maintain, and possibly ease up the process of having patches included 
upstream.

Would anyone else be interested ?

There is already a mirror on GitHub at https://github.com/wch/r-source .
