My opinion is almoast the same like yours, the only option i see
currently would be experimental, but even in experimental i fear that
it would be very much work to keep all plugins compatible with new
vdr-versions, especially since we are allready more or less upstream 
for some plugins (vdr-plugin-weather for example).

Well, allready experimented a little bit with git and i really like
it, but i also do not see a reason why we should change from svn to
git in the near future, svn seems to work very fine for our current 
needs.
