Hi John, Yes, we heard this. My comments were in regard to WHY the devs think they need to delay. Sharing the VCS immediately does not impact any in-flight release at all. You can continue to make progress on the Baikal release while other people operate on their own branches and none of it conflicts.
A separate GIT is just silly and not an option that makes any kind of sense.
I am appealing to Alex and Heinz to consider doing this now rather than later. And when they do finally have Baikal ready then other community members will also have good contributions ready for their evaluation/merge for the next release after Baikal. Things would move quite a bit faster doing this way.
Regards, Gerry

It seems to me:
- There will be GIT from the devs after Baikal and not before.
- We are free to set up a best effort GIT ourselves before then.
