I'm not sure that it would be easy to convince me to spend any time trying to convert everything to a new source control system. CVS is nice because it lives everywhere and is a known commodity. Do we really want to think about the headache of having people set up svn (or arch, or whatever) if they want to develop with gdb? Do we want to make gdb's repository separate from, say, cygwin's or newlib's? Seems like a lot of tricky work to me. cgf
