One might also ask the begged question, namely whether or not it makes 
any sense to invest time and effort into a transition to just another 
implementation of cvs vs investing it in moving to something else, like 
SVN.  No, I'm really not trying to re-ignite the "should we move to 
p4/svn/arch/...?" war, I'm simply saying it might be best to decide 
here and now that should any SCM transition ever occur, it should only 
be when the bang-for-buck factor reaches some significant threshold 
over what's currently available now.
