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.
My experiences with subversions are not really good ones. I always struggle with lock problems I can't explain. Nevertheless we could give it try. Before we switch over we must make sure that the little functionality we need (check out, commit, versioning, branches) will be supported from subclipse in a stable manner. I don't want to have to use the command line client and poor synchronisation support! Tweaking the nightly build for subversion is also an issue which needs some adaptation of the build scripts but should be possible.

The question where we should host it also depends on how much advantages an integration with trac offers. Does anybody know what these are apart from the "Browse Source" button? (which we also have with view-cvs).

Has anybody experience with the subversion offer from sourceforge?

thanks
Markus
