CVS has several advantages: - Account management is only in one spot (CVS write access) - Ben R. will use it (who singlehandedly did more site updates in the average month than XSM has seen in its entire lifespan on E.org) - Still serves static pages - Site could auto-update periodically from CVS - Developers are comfortable with the process - No more CMS wars (!!) - Gobs and gobs of tools exist to work with CVS in any number of ways - Translates easily to any SCM system - Revision control for web content with the same features as code! And let's face it: Getting write access to CVS is easier now than it's EVER been. Assuming the person granting you access doesn't screw up, of course... :-) Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
