Great for INGOTs. But please remember, that we are targeting hunderts if not thousands of contributors. It's ok to raise the problms of the OOo-environment and suggest better soultions.

I'm glad you think so. Subversion is the most "proven" alternative to CVS, and the most similar. I'm a fan of Darcs, but Subversion would likely be a better fit for OOo.

As for the number of contributors, *all* of the alternatives I listed would be *better* for handling many contributors. After all, one of the problems of CVS is the difficulty in branching and merging again, which tends to limit the number of contributors. This is why the only people who merge braches are the developers in Hamburg.

And please .. as long as you don't have the perfect solution that would fit to all peoples needs

I do: Subversion

stop using words like "sucks". That's rather "trollish" behaviour and
in no way helpfull for our community.

Saying CVS sucks is a very mild thing, to say. It's not intended as trolling. OOo developers also say that CVS sucks. CVS developers say that CVS sucks (that's why they made Subversion). It's a known fact.

Cheers,
Daniel.
