Shame I will miss this month, sounds interesting. There is even some local
interest stuff in Git as it could easily be argued Tridge's presentation
about bitkeeper reverse engineering at linux.conf.au 2005 gave the push
to the kernel to go use something different and Linus invented Git. (the
push bveing Bitkeeper free open source project use licence being revoked)

Source Code Management tools are good, hope this helps convince people who
do not realise their awesomeness that they are indeed so.

	See You
