I'm a bit daunted by the transition, as it will learning new tools and ways of working efficiently. The only question for me w.r.t version control system is which one do we migrate too, and when do we do it. Given I would really like to get 3.0 out the door before I drop back to earning a living again, taking on too much that will reduce productivity even if just for a few weeks is something that trip us up in getting 3.0 out the door. What we could do is set up a group of developers that have knowledge of the various systems and start to look at the how to and when of migration. Once 3.0 is out the door the plan can swing into action. Robert.
