Hi Marijn,

What benefit did you get out of Cornerstone and not Versions?  I tried
switching myself, but the only thing I found that Cornerstone actually did
better was the commit dialog.  Everything else was more frustrating UI-wise
with no added features.

There's still not a well-designed SVN GUI out there that does merging — the
first Versions/Cornerstone-esque app that includes this has my business.
