Money, not technology, is the limiting factor, of course. Barcelona does not pay the Sagrada Familia work; individual contributions do. > Try that with CVS. It isn't trivial, easy, or natural.

What I like more from subversion is that it isn't radical, it "doesn't go far enough". It is (or tries to be) just "a better CVS". A better CVS is fine by me. Juanma
