Of course. Just wanted to make sure what is happening. And I don't share the view that there is something new in SCM every other month. It has been CVS about 10 years ago, SVN about 5 years ago, and it is GIT now. You have to be aware of these developments. Even if it is just to understand why we don't follow the latest trend ;-)

+1. Git and many others all have their valid point but
- none is mainstream enough (we're already striving for getting people to participate in Magnolia, there are enough (ie too many) entry barriers as it stands) - subversion is still evolving and the latest version (1.5) addresses some of the branching issues - it'd probably be a better (and smaller) investment to see if that would bring us any benefit. - there's a new-hot-thing in scm every other month, so i'd rather wait and see what happens until we actually have a real issue with svn (to Boris: yeah, the issue I had yesterday --- my local copy was corrupted, that's all :p)

Looks tempting. Having temporal branches outside the main repository has definitely its point. The obstacle I can see is all the effort which would have to be done. And therefore I am not sure if it paid off.

- jira integration
- IDE integration (collaborate with maven plugins)
- migration of current svn content
- ..

Since I don't feel as if I miss something in subversion today I don't like to move in the next months.
