Given this, one thing that could improve the ability to work on larger disruptive features without necessarily needing to extend the release cycle is a source control system that didn't make it so painful. SVN is only an incremental improvement to CVS on this score, but at least it's an improvement. Does anybody know the status of that migration? I assume it was on hold until after 2.16 was released, but has it been re-scheduled?
