Is this something we should pursue ourselves or do we (or should we) wait for SourceForge to drive things? (Attempting to learn here, not be a pest, will shutup upon command.)

I've been playing with Mercurial for a while after doing both SVN and CVS.  I'm actually, in theory, kinda fond of the distributed model of Git/Mercurial.  If there is a forced change, I would suggest that it may be prudent for the project to move to one of the distributed source management systems like Git or Mercurial.
