I have started the DVCS PEP which can be seen at http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dg7fctr440dvjkdg64 . Not much is there beyond the rationale, usage scenarios I plan to use, and what other sections I plan to write. I'm not sure that's the kind of feedback you want, but it isn't clear what you mean with "checkout". Is it just a working copy (then it would be better to use this term)? Is it some kind of shallow clone containing only part of the history? Or anything else?

A working copy. That's why I mentioned Subversion as the example in the definition. I have updated it.
