[cvsnt] cvs / subversion discussion

I would not be interested in a rivalry with subversion, but rather a
technical discussion about what subversion offers vs. what cvsnt offers
(now and in the future). I doubt that I will stop using cvsnt anytime
soon. It works and I am rather quite happy with it (hats off to you
Tony!). But I would like to know at least what it over the horizon, and
why I will (or won't ;)) like it.

Perhaps this is not the place for such a discussion. If anyone has
addressed this somewhere else, knowing where to find it would work just
as well for me.

However, I feel that all of us on the list could be responsible enough
to handle a discussion about subversion vs. cvsnt without it turning
into a mudslinging flame war. (Wow. I just had an interesting mental
image of burning balls of mud being thrown back and forth. :))

P.S. Sorry Tony. One of these days I will remember to hit "reply to all"
the first time I try to send a message to a list ;)

TBH I'm not getting into a rivalry thing with subversion.  The 2.2.x
CVSNT
will have all of this, but it won't be there for a while (it's a slow
business
since unlike subversion I'm not paid full time to write this).  

Use what works for you...
