Sure, I understand that, but my point was that not being able to get secure 
access to it to work is not a compelling reason NOT to use it.  I just thought 
that maybe you were going down a different path, when the SSH+SVN stuff works 
just really quite easily.

I held on to CVS for quite a while because I just don't really have that heavy 
demands for version control on my own projects.  I personally find SVN to be 
fairly interchangeable in use with CVS, it's a very easy transition.

The down side, as I said in my blog at the time, was that when you have SVN 
you now have branches that work (CVS I could never really get branches to work 
with reliably).  Once I had branches I wanted branch merging and change 
migration between branches, but I eventually found svnmerge which helped out 
there.

Yes, this or DAV was what I thought might have been the problem.  That's why I 
wanted to mention svn+ssh, because it's a great alternative.
