[TxMt] How long must we wait for CVS support?

[David Powers]

Actually, I've never worked in an office that is still using CVS.  The 
other available tools have surpassed it for many many years.

Also, the subversion/"other weird library" support has been added by 
volunteers as bundles - feel free to beef up the CVS bundle if it upsets 
you.

That said, Allan has already said several times that improved 
integration with CVS, scp, etc. is on the docket for the 2.0 release, 
which is actively being worked on.  Although, given what Allan said here 
(http://macromates.com/blog/archives/2006/05/01/cocoa-radio-interview/#more-87) 
under "Number of licenses sold", I doubt the $500 is going to do much to 
speed that up.
