Any former SVK users on this list?

well, for future projects I'd have the choice, actually. It would have 
been just handy to have the direct access to all my old SVN repos without 
the need to convert them into mercurial format.

Another point is the still significantly better Windows client TortoiseSVN 
in comparison to TortoiseHg. The latter could - due to its portability - 
also be used on Linux, but is unfortunately not (yet) as powerful. But 
perhaps one can hope for more development on it in the future.

Just noticed that mercurial's mailing list is almost as much frequented as 
subversion's... That tells something as well, I guess!

Regards,
Marko
