Now, like I wrote earlier, IMO all current vcs's store enough information about 'changesets' so that converting them is rather more trivial than converting anything from RCS/CVS to a current vcs. I like Subversion myself but it's possible that there's a better fit for the project. But like Robert wrote, someone will have to set up a real repository etc. before anyone can knowledgeably comment on the use for the FreeBSD project. --Stijn --=20 "An adult is a child who has more ethics and morals, that's all." -- Shigeru Miyamoto --+nBD6E3TurpgldQp Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFECgWHY3r/tLQmfWcRAsj1AJ9EnszpX5paVuowo9UOBLr8KZbHgACgj0yr 6VgQHCe2hfNZSFRHibIkfvc= =r2r2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --+nBD6E3TurpgldQp--
