There have been a couple of posts about source code management lately:

1) Gosling makes a comment about how Mercurial is one of the enablers behind releasing Java

"From a pragmatic engineering point of view, the open-source tools like CVS (Concurrent Versioning System) don't work well for large-scale projects. Internally, we use a tool called Teamware, but for various reasons, it didn't make sense to export that to the rest of the world. So one of the big changes over the last year has been that there's a new source-code management tool called Mercurial, and that's made everyone in engineering very happy."

2) RedHat is in the process of reevaluating its SCM

This has what RedHat sees as pros and cons of the various systems.
