I can't remember a time before CVS (and now DVCS). Distributing patches via geocache sounds awesome.

"Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway." —Tanenbaum, Andrew S.

The latency is the problem, not the bandwidth.

(By the way, considered as a means of transferring information sex has lots of bandwidth, too. Not, yet, useful for sharing patches, though.)

Well, not consciously-designed ones.
