hello,

http://better-scm.berlios.de/comparison/
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bazaar_(software)

the only problem i really have with svn is the use of
a different storage system for your project.  It
forces you  to do a checkout to grab a layout of your
project files.

Whereas in Darcs and BazaarNG, the project structure
stays intact with the addition of a subdirectory to
keep track of the repository.  Moreover, the core
functionalities of both softwares are designed to be
decentralized.

There is a solutions in svn to have the same effect as
above through post-commit scripts or timed-checkouts. 
The cruxade project i have now is also privately
hosted using svn, a specific branch will be check-out
in 5 minutes to have the latest changes accessible via
http.  (But then again, what of the other branches?
that'll be a pain to administer in a more dynamic
environment where developers create branches at will.)
 For decentralized development there is an early stage
SVK to work with SVN.
