Opinionated piece, be warned.
I can go into explaining why, but basically, Eric, I think you're wrong. Your choice is one of the things that stifles grimoire development, because even in a commercial SD it's hard to enforce enough discipline to use one SCM tool successfully, and you're advocating using _two_ of them. I'm not even attacking free vs non-free subject. And I think Ryan's wrong in not enforcing a stricter policy.
<sarcasm>At the same time, we 're (for now, you are) having more fun doing this CVS-P4 synchronization ;-), and that's what SMGL is about, right?</sarcasm>
BTW, my section has no bugs files against it. Tomorrow, if we decide to open the whole grimoire to all maintainers, we don't even have a grimoire. We have two of them.

This whole "best tool" vs "free tool" thing can get emotional. Lets try to
avoid that, and recognize that both sides are right (its purely a value
judgement) - and lets do something that makes it possible for both sides to
work together.

As far as I am concerned this is the ONLY useful thing that has been said on the whole subject... well spoken and once again you show why you got my vote for Project Lead!
