Re: CVS alternatives

[NZG <ngustavson@emacinc.com>]

Your right that it might be something else, were running a debian server 
that's trying to do a hundred things at once, php, mail, cvs, serving our 
webpages, etc.
Plus we just switched netadmins.

I'm not saying it's CVS's fault, I'm just saying that if there's a learning 
curve involved anyway, is this the best thing to be learning?

thx,
NZG.
