BitKeeper claims doubling of kernel development pace

BitMover has sent out a press release claiming that the adoption of BitKeeper has doubled the pace of kernel development over the past two years. Quoting Linus: "BitKeeper is different. It's made me more than twice as productive, and its fundamentally distributed nature allows me to work the way I prefer to work -- with many different groups working independently, yet allowing for easy merging between them."

No, not at all, unless you think that Linus is seriously delusional.

And anyway, writing it in Latin doesn't make it right.
