That is awesome news. I am very glad the decision is taken at last and particularly pleased with Mercurial as it is was my favorite candidate too (Even that I am a Subversion fun myself). I have to admit I learned a lot from the evaluation process and appreciate the effort of everyone involved. > > Useful feedback on the evaluation came from many community members, > with Al Hopper, Paul Jakma, Patrick Mauritz, and Cyril Plisko being > particularly active.

Anyway, if any help with implementation will be needed I'll be glad to help (although there are people on the list that significantly more experienced with hg than me :) ) Very good news for OpenSolaris (and eventually for Mercurial!) overall. -- Regards, Cyril _______________________________________________ tools-discuss mailing list tools-discuss@opensolaris.org
