However, in this case it should perhaps rather be deferred, since we cannot
once and forever reject switching to a DVCS.

OTOH, we can't keep discussing forever whether we should switch, either.
If a decision is made not to switch, that decision should hold for a
couple of years - as long as the reason(s) for not switching remain
valid.

Originally, I had suggested considering the switch after the 2.6/3.0 release. I still think switching "soonish" after a major release is a good time (soonish can be 3 months, like we're now considering). It definitely would /not/ be a good idea to switch anytime before a major release. So if we defer the decision now, I think we need to look at the release calendar before choosing another window for the switch.
