I'm not sure if non committers are allowed to vote, count it if we are,
feel free to ignore if we are not.

We have already discussed and voted about the SVN issue, but there are
some new and changed circumstances and I would like to find out if
there are still committers who have serious objection against SVN.
Cons:
- IntelliJ users still do not have integrated SVN support.
Pros:
- SVN is the new repository technology for ASF. At the long term all
Apache projects should have moved to SVN. So it's unwritten common
sense that new top level projects should start with SVN from the
beginning.
- As you know, SVN is able to keep history for renamed and moved files
and dirs. Just now we are discussing some serious structural changes
(subprojects, sandbox, etc.) If we do that now in CVS we would loose
valuable history for many files.
- TortoiseSVN is a powerful alternative for all IntelliJ users in the meantime.
So here is my definite
+1 for switching from CVS to Subversion
