Hmmm... I didn't see any notification about the request (probably buried 
in my inbox somewhere), but it was still there in the web interface. 
Request accepted. Welcome!

That's a good point. Another perspective is that if Rakudo packaging is 
going to be done as part of pkg-perl, and they're using svn, we might 
want to use svn for pkg-parrot too. I guess it partly depends on where 
we're likely get the most packaging help, from other Debian packagers or 
from Parrot developers.
