Malte,

Thanks for posting that link.

We've decided to stick with CVS for the time being. That is the versioning
control system that most of our developers are familiar with, and the
advantages of Subversion aren't great enough at this time to make the
switch. (Another great advantage of Subversion is that it can version binary
files. I don't know if CVS can do this.)

As a side note, I maintain a SVN repository at my SurveyOS SourceForge site,
which stores some JUMP related code. This allows me to get some experience
working with Subversion and Subversion tools in case we do decide to make
the switch.

I imagine we will probably move to Subversion as it becomes more popular and
more of our developers start to work with it in their "day jobs".

Hello List,

I just found this weblog about this subject:
http://blogs.oracle.com/duffblog/2007/05/07#a411

By the way, I vote for Subversion although Netbeans support isn't as
good as Eclipse one.
I worked with both Systems and Subversion more intuitive for me.
But maybe I'm getting a more experienced Developer ;-)

Greetings,
Malte
