I would also vote no.  Without Nick and James to referee the patches
that have been sent in, we would have had a broken server many times.
With a project such as this, with such a wide range of people
contributing a little bit, our current model works better.  CVS works
better if there are a few active programmers and one set of code.

Note that I really like cvs in general, use it everyday for my real work
- but I just don't think it's the best solution for the vanilla server.
