Sorry; didn't mean to imply you were wrong about that...

But the bulk of MR is probably the web based stuff, wiki, issues etc., which means gitolite is way on the other side of the spectrum, so it felt like any comparision is moot, and used the code/binary sizes to highlight that.

But you said just the ACL capabilities... set me thinking...

Intland: do you have a page that describes your role based ACL stuff a
little more?  I have a feeling that, modulo it all being in one text
file, gitolite can probably come close :-)

Oh yeah, and indefero is actually looking pretty good -- I know some guys at $DAYJOB looking at it very seriously.

:-) yes it is nice, but again, at $DAYJOB access control (even to view projects) is a big deal. A very big deal, actually...!
