Hopefully the site doesn't stay down long, but doing some searching on twitter it appears it's already been down for a few days.
Enterprises looking to attract new talent would do well to figure out how to use git, since most new hires will come in with mastery of it and will find it annoying to use crufty older version control systems. Unfortunately, enterprises often have well-established release processes built around their existing tools, making it extremely hard to replace them with something new like git.

Firstly, I am still quite new to Mercurial and version control in general.
We have a setup here of 2 developers and a server. We noticed an issue today of some changes that I pushed to the server yesterday, the other developer when he pulled it didn't have these changes.
Software compliance isn’t exactly the sexiest topic we tackle at the Linux Foundation, but it’s one of the most important. While we focus *our* efforts on open source software, the vast majority of software compliance efforts are focused on proprietary licenses.
