While this sounds good, it implies that the components are somewhat isolated 
from each other, which often isn't the case.

OpenFabrics as an organization made the decision to use SVN as its code 
repository for open-source development.  We've discussed using something else a 
few times, without ever reaching consensus.  Until OpenFabrics decides to move 
to a different source control tool or follow a different development model, I 
think it's best for all developers to be consistent.
