Moving from SVN to CVS?? This is normally the other way around, CVS has so much disadvantages compared to SVN ... Besides, Eclipse works perfectly with SVN. I actually manage all my personal projects through SVN, and am happy with it. The only repository I access via CVS is the Gentoo tree, and it's a pain everytime.
Among some painful stuff in CVS: adding a directory is done instantly (no wait for commit), no decent support for renaming, no easy support for deletion and status listing... there are probably many more. -1 from me. Please reconsider this decision.
