My concern is still for the release process.  I need to be able to 
easily pull a sequential log of commit messages since the last release 
tag (to check/update the Changes file) and the release tool needs to 
know how to:

  1.  verify that the working directory is current *and* committed
  2.  create a tag
  (and all of this needs to be atomically/cleanly sync'd to the "global"
  repository before sending a tarball to the CPAN)

I'm sure that's all "no problem" with git, but it is some non-zero 
amount of work for me to update the process (vs zero amount of work for 
me if it doesn't change.)  We want to keep releases *easy*, so please 
include the above in any transition effort/plan.

Thanks,
Eric
