Article on OSDir

An interesting article on OSDir, an interview with Tom Lord (author of 'arch') 
giving his view on CVS and Subversion:
http://osdir.com/Article1687.phtml

Some inflammatory stuff, but well argued.

"In short, part of what propelled me to write arch is just simple, old 
fashioned, ego-driven rivalry: I wanted to show those folks [CVS&SVN]up."

My only concert is:
"t's great when you're managing just a mainline, but if you start 
branching the poor merging support comes into play"
