I mean that if several people work on a changeset, that they still might want to have a join central repo. Of course dvcs allows direct exchange of patches as well, but it might still be a good idea to have this central dvcs repo for historical reasons (lets say some stuff is attempted, it is then abandonded and then picked up by someone else). Also in terms of standardization I mean that even core developers can get overwhelmed if they end up having to use git here, and hg there. Then again we are still far away from having that many different subprojects that need dvcs. regards, Lukas Kahwe Smith mls@pooteeweet.org
