I do not like it is the simple answer. Development tools are supposed to make my job easier. CVS just gets in my way all the time. I am looking forward to experimenting with arch. However since I do not have a server to host the repository on it will only be a toy. Another thing is I have been coding often on my laptop and currently my only way to get files from it is via a floppy. cvs assumes you have a network or are willing to patch and commit. Personally, I would rather people use the tarballs I release. Frankly the need to download code just because it is new has never made sense to me. Yesterday CVS did not even compile. I just never had that much time on my hands I suppose.
