Before even talking about git; the discussion should focus on whether we 
want DVCS. There are other things out there beside gits, which are not 
that difficult to use and provide just as much functionality.

I am not in favour; I will repeat what I just wrote to Davey: 
DVCS is also a lot more egocentric thing, instead of 
collaboration. You want your stuff exposed to as many developers as 
possible instead of walled gardens. It might be easy enough to 
share, but discovery is a lot harder.
