Title should read, "Open Source BitKeeper ousts free Proprietary Edition", no? /ME hears the sound of an axe being ground.

BitMover mentions that they will still track the kernel tree in their system, but this is entirely selfish and intended for their purpose only. Linus is on the move because CVS just ain't going to cut it.
