CMAP and Mercurial

I attended the CMAP (Central Maryland Association of .NET Programmers) tonight, and heard a presentation on the 'Mercurial' distributed version control system (DVCS).

I'm glad that I went. I chatted with a bunch of folks and learned about DVCSs. (Actually, a few lights went on tonight, and I want to think a bit more about DVCSs.)

And today the US House of Representatives passed a two-week continuing resolution. The Senate will probably approve the bill, and I suspect that President Obama will sign it. Which means that we may be back to nail-biting in two weeks, on St. Patrick's Day.
