Well, I've looked at it. CVSNT looks like it makes some improvements on CVS, but stays much more in the CVS mold than SVN. Whether that is good or bad depends on your point-of-view. Since CVSNT depends on regular CVS clients, my guess is that CVSNT is somewhat limited as to ability to introduce new approaches. I was initially very skeptical of SVN, but after using it I'm rapidly becoming convinced that by starting fresh they were able to provide more functionality yet greater ease-of-use. --Beman
