It's really only hg and git which have the critical mass to ensure long-term survival, so it's a good thing NetBSD didn't switch to arch or bzr. It is overdue to move to a DVCS, but the clamor of "we have to switch to X because it's new and shiny" has to be fended off for a while in order to have stability.
