Reasons were:

- same VCS for Firebird (core project uses SVN, some others do as well);

- should be supported by SF.net and Jira;

- should support "move" without loosing a history;

- should be integrated with Eclipse at least on the same level as CVS.

Additional benefit compared to CVS - I can work with it from behind the 
company's firewall, since HTTP is usually open, and CVS and SSH ports 
are closed.

Also, Java plugin, which contains part of Jaybird is already in SVN 
repository and it was agreed long time ago in the admin list that 
Jaybird migrates to SVN after 2.2 release.

So, unless the core project is going to leave SVN and move to git, or 
we change the hosting from SF.net to some other project hub, Jaybird 
should migrate to SVN.
