Philippe, all,

Last night, I was readying that patch to submit here, I saw that RDT
0.8.0 was released in GA.
So I though that was cool, because my patch was based on CVS HEAD.
But I was bitten badly by Sf.net.
My patch was completely out of sync with the sources in the release
drop, applying to classes that were worked on and refactored since :-\
Sf.net anonymous pserver seems completely out of sync with HEAD, which
can only be accessed by ssh, and requires you to be a committer.

Just to give an explanation for this part of the email:

SF.net had a serious CVS meltdown earlier this month. They had to do backups and order hardware and are still in the process of migrating to a new architecture. One of the remaining artifacts is that anonymous CVS is not being replicated off the private CVS just yet. That's why you're seeing differences. Hopefully they'll get it all worked out sooner rather than later.

Next up is an idea to stew on. We've got a group of german students who are working on preliminary refactoring support. We've got RadRails building on top of us. We may have a google summer of code student as well. Considering those new sources building on top of what we do - and considering the CVS issues - should we seriously consider migrating to using Subversion?

What are your gut reactions? I think it would benefit us in terms of letting others just use externals to keep in synch with us. for active development. Plus we'd gain the seemingly more stable setup at SF.net and well - Subversion is supposed to be a better replacement for CVS already.

Thanks,
Chris
