[edit] GPL
I cannot find any reference to the GPL being applied to SVK. Does someone have a source for this information?
First, I'm a SVK committer. :-) SVK clearly marks itself as "the same license as Perl"; Perl is dual-licensed under both Artistic and GPL. See the "License" panel at http://search.cpan.org/dist/SVK/ and README of Perl, and other places. When you see "the Perl License", it always means Artistic/GPL. Autrijus 21:05, 2005 May 29 (UTC)
Thanks for the information. --Seitz 01:11, 31 May 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Not a TLA
Earlier, I removed the TLA subject because I could not find any documenation that SVK was a TLA. Now I have found specific documentation that SVK in not a TLA:
"Right now, SVK means 'Ess Vee Kay'. That is to say that there is no accepted acronym." Source: http://svk.elixus.org/?SVKMeaning

[edit] Removed links to Wandisco
I have removed the links to Wandisco. The links were added by anonymous users, and the article of Wandisco was already speedy-deleted because of blatant advertising.
Wandisco is a commercial tool built upon free software, which is something very badly-sighted by the open-source community. The page of Wandisco uses very visible spammer techniques, such as bloated title tag and lots of keywords stuffed into the page. The link on this article had the text "Distributed SCM", which is clearly trying to poison search results (to make anyone looking for this text to be lead to their site).
