+1 to that

e.g. during earlier development of tiles at home, there were lots of people doing 
their own modifications which might be useful to others (e.g. to run it on 
Windows, or to run on clusters of PCs, or to run local queues) but not 
everyone, that could be modelled more easily on a distributed source-control 
system

a potential problem: it excludes windows-users, doesn't it? (the significant 
one for osmarender being 80n)
