So you know professional software developers who don't know Subversion? 
I'd say "professional" and "not knowing svn" are mutually exclusive.

And we all know that companies switch versioning tools all the time. Oh 
wait, they don't. The bigger ones use commercial systems like Perfoce, I 
agree, but I haven't seen it very often. Hell, I even still see RCS/CVS 
in daily use for BSD config files at some of my clients. Anyone who 
knows the former qualifies for the Get-Off-My-Lawn club. ;)

Just out of curiosity, which ones do you mean? I sure hope you aren't 
talking about the git hype from the Rails community. (I [heart] git, 
BTW, but haven't seen it in use outside the Rails context.)
