What's New in Mercurial 3.0

For me, the extreme popularity of GitHub is the No. 1 reason to avoid it as I do not want to contribute to the centralization of the Web. Also I like Fossil's [fossil-scm.org] approach of integrating wiki and bug tracker into DVCS, which allows projects to be less dependent on hosting services.

Fossil's user base has yet to reach a critical mass, mercurial and git are at least widely used and plugins, and services exist. I wonder if darcs will become a viable option again.

For git there is ticgit, which is a tracker that lives as a git branch.

Its definitely great to have several tools available and see a really productive evolution for good version control systems.

There is no decentralized system yet for social networking:

Identity, Authentication, Privacy, Subscriptions, Notifications, Contacts, Invites etc.

That's what we're working on at Qbix
