Seriously Olin, what is wrong with folk talking about version control=20
systems or archiving software? Just because you don't find the subject=20
interesting does not mean it does not belong here (I agree not in EE,=20
but that's no big deal)
Enough people seemed to find it worth discussing, and the ones that=20
don't are free to ignore it (no?)
I also find the mention of someone arguing for arguments sake rather=20
ironic, but in any case why assume the worst motives - could it not be=20
simply that someone feels passionately about the discussion and the=20
point they are making?
