in reply to OT: Getting people to use tools
This kind of resistance can be seen elsewhere (using CVS, using CPAN modules, etc.), and I don't know any silver bullet to solve it. You can try winning them over one at a time, or your manager can tell them they have to use it. I've seen teams waste tons of time or use terrible tools because of unwillingness to try new things. Many won't change if they have a choice in the matter, but once they try the new thing they'll realize how silly it was to do it the old way.
