As I said, CVSNT has been exceptionally stable for me, doesn't require
setting up SSH or PuTTY, and in the past (not recently) I used it's
server features. So yes, I can switch, but I'm not sure why I should.
CVSNT is still free, after all. Adding an ad to a message and
providing a way to avoid it can hardly be reason enough to consider it
non-free.

Anyway, what do you propose about the [non-Emacs-developer] users' out
there, for which this whole -m/-M issue will be an inconvenience? It's
not like they're guilty of using proprietary software.
