Syntax is CVS-compatible, i.e. just do s/cvs/svn/ in all commands you
used to use.

Max: I'm all for it. We used SVN for gob engine when it was out of the
main tree and I liked it. Especially because in overall it takes much
less bandwitdh in day-to-day work and i'm still in dial-up.

The questions are who will provide the repository, how safe will it
be, what about backups etc.
