Could someone tell me where documentation concerning the
use of perforce and or, how to gain access to is located?

Up until very recently I was not aware of it's existence.
This would make it very difficult for someone new to the
Project to contribute.

It seems to my line of thinking that the existence of a repository
That is undocumented, that is used for major development proccess's
Breaks our development model.

Further enhancing the "Elite" attitude that is so often proscribed
To BSD* developers.

As it seems people are forming a list of cvs alternatives, anyone ever
took a look at arch? http://regexps.com/#arch

A buddy of mine just mentioned it, and it seemed to fit in this
discussion, i don't know it myself though. It's covered under the GPL.
