My point was that, with a DVCS, "commit rights" are really just the right to release manage the official repository. Anyone can trivially fork both privately or publically, they can easily merge official or unofficial changes. This has a lot benefits for projects, but it does change the notion of control in the project. > My argument was that the source control system doesn't dictate the > type of community an open source project has. No they don't, but they do put constraints on what sort of development process are feasible. Look a the Linux kernel process, it wouldn't be feasible with a centralized version control system like subversion.
