Comments? Should we switch from CVS to subversion? With limited svn
experience I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other. Perhaps
if I use svn more, I'd appreciate it more... :) Anyway, if people want
this to happen, we will do it... on the other hand, if people do not
want it to happen...
Please let me know either way.
Thanks,
Ken

From my perspective, pretty please :-).
Besides all the cool things about SVN repositories, it particularly
helps folks like me that are sometimes behind the Sun firewall and
sometimes not. Switching proxy server settings on SVN is trivial ...
switching proxy server settings on CVS is basically impossible.
