I'm using darcs-1, but I played around with darcs-2 once. Install on my ubuntu box was painless. Ubuntu Intrepid (released next month) will have darcs-2. AFAIK, you can use darcs-2 with old repos and darcs figures it out automatically. The question is whether you really want to switch to the new repo-format (then old clients are not compatible anymore). IMHO there should be really good reasons for that (not only "ppl say that it is more robust" when you dont experience problems). How much faster is it? Why not run both formats in parallel for a while, and decide afterwards? It shouldnt be a problem to mirror all commits to another repo with a commit hook. Then you would not exclude anyone from accessing dokuwiki via darcs. Probably the darcs ppl have other comments (and experiences) on migrating. My 2 cents, Sebastian.
