Developing kde and/or qt already requires git knowledge - why 
introducing an additional scm with an additional learning curve only for 
one project
Bzr for example is currently not supported by the KDE windows build 
system and will need volunteers to add this scm to the KDE build system.
Also the trend for case tools in general goes in the direction of 
integration into IDE's (for example 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Rational_Software_Architect), so in the 
future of umbrello there may be more bundling with 
kdevelop/kdevplatform  and/or QtCreator. Having a different repo makes 
stuff more complicate in term of merging, patching and so on.

What is bad with the services provided by kde.org, that a complete 
different hosting should be choosed ?
Is there something important missing ?
Does the translations service provided by kde.org do not work ?
