[M3devel] some cvs errors?

[Randy Coleburn]

As far as replacing CVS with something else, I have "no dog in the race"
so to speak, but I will say that CVS has worked fine for my purposes and
the TortoiseCVS integration with Windows Explorer makes life easy for me
on Windows.  I don't have to remember all the CVS command line switches;
I just use the TortoiseCVS GUI and it works.  If we switch to something
else that doesn't have this level of GUI, it will present a learning
curve for me.

Randy Coleburn

That something better would then be Perforce or AccuRev?

Elego has got 3 committers to the Subversion project, and there are
lots of problems, too. We've got several customers who are regularly
pushing it over the edge of its capabilities...

But I'm not against a change, as long as others will do the work ;-)
