I just noticed that there is an article about Mercurial 1.0
in issue 12 (2008-05-26) of the bi-weekly German computer
magazine "c't" (http://www.heise.de/ct/english/)!

"Offline versionieren -- Von Subversion auf Mercurial umsteigen"

by Oliver Lau

pages 182 to 187

(translation attempt by myself:
"Offline versioning -- Switching from Subversion to Mercurial)

(I'm a subscriber of that magazine.)

The article is 6 full pages with several graphics and screenshots,
also showing, for example, TortoioseHg.

Quote:

"... Ohne Netzanschluss ist der Platzhirsch Subversion
allerdings kaum zu gebrauchen. Das macht Mercurial -
neben einigem anderen - viel besser."

translation attempt by myself:

"... Without network connectivity, top dog Subversion
isn't of much use. That's where Mercurial -- among
several other things -- is doing much better".

The article also references Bryan's hgbook (with full
URL).

Congratulations to Matt and Bryan and to all project
contributors!
