I've got to watch my mouth here :) It's hard to make sure I'm not
pressurising or under-reporting an issue when I'm being a middleman.

The choice is completely there. I need to reword my aim of getting
Jakarta into SVN this quarter to be the more realistic "getting all of
Jakarta to consider SVN this quarter". There are some gains on the
client-side, and some losses for tightly-focused IDE users (you lose
synchronise repository functionality in Eclipse for example). The
Infra guys have much more in the way of gains over losses, so from
their point of view it's a much easier choice.

That said, if the subcommunity has absolutely no interest in moving,
it's a disservice if I make it look as though you're being pushed. I
assume the time will come in a year or so when the infrastructure
group start talking about wanting to get everyone out of CVS as there
are so few left (and CVS is already in a minority), but things can
wait until then.

I'll start to maintain a list of "Want to stay in CVS for the near
future", and the general response on this thread suggests I should put
JMeter on it.
