I think that most open source projects just don't have the resources or contributor levels for true distributed development to happen.You probably are right that using a DVCS as intended is overkill for most projects.

But the whole reason why git exists at all is to support development of the Linux kernel. I don't think you can brush it off so easily.

Look here for an example of what real distributed development looks like with git: http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next....
