15 years? Our cvs repository is only about 5 years old and cvs isn't 15 years old! I agree with the sentiment though :-) Although, if it's widely used I suspect it will stabilise much sooner than a couple of years. If it has the required features it might be worth playing with on the back burner to see how it shaped up. Paul.
