> declaring Subversion (the then leading SCM) brain dead?

I remember that more as berating the incumbent leader in non-distributed VCSs, than promoting a specific DVCS, and that git wasn't mature at that point (the move from BK had not happened). Though maybe my remembered timeline is muddled, do you have further reference to that talk so I can verify details?
