Thanks for clarification Adrian,
I did not think about the Release Manager role

Everyone is missing the point I am trying to make.
I said, "***IF*** Jacopo said something like..."
As the OFBiz RM, ***IF*** Jacopo said he couldn't use Subversion to manage the OFBiz project, then the need to switch to something else would be
obvious.
I hope that clarifies my true meaning.

Switching the main repo to Git does not add anything to the project itself. As I said before, Subversion handles our simple needs just fine. If
Jacopo said something like, "Managing our releases is impossible with Subversion, we really need to switch to Git" - then we wouldn't be having
this discussion, it would just happen because the need for the switch is obvious.
But Jacopo is not saying that, and we don't have a problem using Subversion to
manage the project.
I don't remember Jacopo proposed to move to Git, it was Hans, then Taher, Adam and Ean seconded. I guess Taher, AntWeb and Brainfood are using Git
and they would like to see OFBiz using it as well.
In fact I didn't express my opinion or preference.
At Hotwax we use Git for all our projects and we are happy with it. But this
doesn't mean that svn is bad or old or not a good tool for OFBiz.
In fact, as I mentioned to Hans at ApacheCon, before discussing "svn vs git" as mere tools, it would be more interesting and useful to
review/discuss the contribution/commit workflows that these tools can enable and see if there is a room for a better workflow for the project.
