WHAT are you developing then?

Apparently you are not using GNU toolchain (still developed with CVS and SVN), you are not using projects on sourceforce and/or code.google.com (things like Python and DocBook), you don't use GNOME and KDE... looks like you are working on another planet!

Either that or you are just ignoring the fact that 90% of things you use in your work are not done with DVCS - and if 90% of tools you are using are invisible to you then I afraid I'll like to avoid the projects which are visible to you: who knows what other facts of life are ignored in them?

It's as ridiculous as "we don't know any Windows" attitude: it's Ok to not support Windows, but it's NOT OK to pretend it does not exist when 90% of world is still using it...
