I find it not interesting at all, even slightly annoying, that I cannot seem to start a perfectly valid discussion about advocating porcelain, and trying to even avoid mentioning plumbing in user-visible documentation, without somebody highjacking the thread to talk about svn. I am disinterested in svn. So disinterested that I do not even want to read about it. What we could learn from svn, we did, positive and negative lessons, now there is nothing more to be seen here, please move along. So can those people who have something to say about _my_ subject of discussion please speak up? I think this issue has not been discussed properly. Thanks. Dscho
