I'd go with - "please no SVN" ;) (or at least keep an official mirror in
another repo type)
Why?
We're keeping a number of patches that are company-specific, so will
never go into Opensips-proper and could be much easier to manage if they
were in some distributed repo supporting patch queues properly.
Also managing what patches were selectively ported back is a bit easier
with git I guess.

I know that git and mercurial support patch queues quite well. Also
github and bitbucket services are quite popular if people want to keep a
copy of their own forks / branches public. I think that could also help
with patch submissions - instead of attaching a patch to some tracker
item and looking up which revision they patched in the first place,
people could just point at a specific github/bitbucket revision in their
fork.
