Future
Some natively centralized systems are starting to grow distributed features. For example, Subversion is able to do many operations with no network. It may become more difficult to separate natively distributed vs centralized systems.
There are many tools that rely on version control, such as wikis, file systems, and text editors. Some are starting to adopt DVCS features, and even integrate with them, for example the Gazest wiki, ikiwiki.

Famous quotes containing the word future:

—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“The future is inevitable and precise, but it may not occur. God lurks in the gaps.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)

When it comes to a mountain farm
To exact for a present gain
A little of future harm.”
