That is incorrect - CVSNT are 5 letters, and that is all. Since about version 2.0.58 CVSNT has supported both reserved and unreserved versioning (-kx means 'reserved'). The CVSNT project has generally not limited it's features to those that support a particular ideology or methodology - rather to provide versioning tools that are useful for the widest number of people and processes. I know some people never updated CVSNT beyond 2.0.51 who strongly disagreed with our decision to support reserved versioning in CVSNT. I've rather taken lately to describing CVSNT as NoT CVS, I think it communicates fairly clearly that CVSNT is somehow related to CVS but does have considerably different features... >From my experience 'selling' CVSNT commercially - you can convince far more people to use concurrent/co-operative versioning if you let each team decide on what methodology works best for them. Eventually people on teams using 'reserved' versioning get to 'see' that teams using unreserved still get the work done and they can easily 'switch' without migration, losing history and other problems associated with using different tools for each process.
