One little note, bzr I find to be rather nice, however I find it's a bit annoyingly memory and cpu intensive on source trees as large as cf. git/cogito looks interesting, the tools seem pretty nice from what little I've looked at, though it will be a bit of pain under windows (and we do have a couple windows-using developers) as under windows it requires cygwin. One other thought, darcs looks like an interesting one too, however the fact that it's written in hacksel makes it a bit of a pain to compile if one can't get binaries for one's system.
Personally I'm thinking just sticking with CVS is best though, largely due to sticking with sf being easiest. I'm now thinking that SVN wouldn't be too bad, but wouldn't be worth switching from CVS to use unless one has some significant reason.
