In the "KDE switches to Subversion" slashdot commentary, Fitz and I saw
this excellent exchange. :-)

Post:

My managers simply refuse to use anything proposed by us, the
development team, and named subversion.

Response:

Good that you mentioned it. for $50k a year, I'm glad to license them my
own version control system, "Rule The Developers With an Iron Fist".
It's actually just Subversion and Trac in a box with a pretty logo and
some marketing collateral. Plus, a guy with a nice suit and good hair
will come and spend two hours explaining things to them in short words
and bullet points.

Or they can get the deluxe version for $100k per year, where the guy
with good hair will also take them golfing and out to dinner.
