Hi, all -

As you may know, the OpenSolaris team at Sun has been working for a
number of months to pick a distributed SCM that is capable of handling
their project's needs.

After careful deliberation and systematic evaluation of the
alternatives, they have chosen to use Mercurial.  This is an excellent
affirmation of what we all already know about Mercurial: it's fast,
scalable, and easy to use.

The only fly in the ointment is that they'd really like merging to
handle and follow renames properly, like just about everyone else :-)

Hats off to all the developers whose hard work made Mercurial the
obvious choice!
