Hello,

Thanks for your interrest in evolve!

Both document and code are hosted on bitbucket:

    https://bitbucket.org/marmoute/hgview-mutable

Contribution can be submitted by pull request from either bitcket or obsolete
enabled repo[1].

I believe that discussion can happen on the mercurial list for now. We'll move
to a dedicated list if the amount get out of control. As a lot of code are
aimed for code, UI and terminolgy discussion deserves to happen on this list
anyway.

Use it has you wish, imagine usage, understand the principe. What we need the
most for now is people used to the basic concept that can make insighful point
during design discussion.

Cheer,
