If you need to use a Version Control System for any of your Debian work,
you can use one the existing repositories hosted on Alioth or you can
request a new project and ask for the VCS repository of your choice.
-Alioth supports CVS (alioth.debian.org), Subversion
+Alioth supports CVS (cvs.alioth.debian.org/cvs.debian.org), Subversion
(svn.debian.org), Arch (tla/baz, both on arch.debian.org), Bazaar
(bzr.debian.org), Darcs (darcs.debian.org), Mercurial (hg.debian.org) and Git
(git.debian.org). Checkout <ulink url="&url-alioth-pkg;" /> if you plan
to maintain packages in a VCS repository. See <xref linkend="alioth"/> for
information on the services provided by Alioth.

Alioth is a Debian service based on a slightly modified version of the
-GForge software (which evolved from SourceForge). This software offers
+FusionForge software (which evolved from SourceForge and GForge). This software offers
developers access to easy-to-use tools such as bug trackers, patch
manager, project/task managers, file hosting services, mailing lists, CVS
repositories etc. All these tools are managed via a web interface.
