Is there anyone out there using Perforce for distributed development?

When you say "distributed", do you mean that:

1. the developers are geographically distributed?

Or do you mean that

2. the depot is geographically distributed?

If its simply #1 you're looking for, then one of the most distributed and most well known uses of Perforce for distributed development would be "Perl." The Perl 5 porters have been using Perforce for Perl 5 development for about a year now and are having great success.

In fact, a write-up of some of that occurred in the most recent issue of "The Perl Journal" (TPJ, see www.tpj.com) in an article which described some of the upcoming changes in the now Beta-release version of Perl 5.005 and how some of the development effort was organized.

Cheers!
