They have Larry McVoy's "BitKeeper", which addresses a Who's "they", and please don't answer "The Linux community" or anything else which is equivalently vague to the point of absurdity, please be specific. Which group(s) are using it and what are the URLs pointing to on-line proof of this in each case? I ask these questions because your statement strongly implies that this technology is in active use now by "them" and that contradicts other statements I heard at USENIX, making the question of tangible proof somewhat relevant in deciding which story is true. Also please note that I'm not asking "which people will be using bitkeeper" or "which people are thinking of using bitkeeper", I'm asking who the current, active poster-children users of this product are. - Jordan To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
