More important: what is it good for? pm-utils is a project with only a few files (until autocrappification came, which increased the number significantly, but still _very_ small). Moving to git or something else buys us not really anything, but it costs resources. And no, CVS was never the bottleneck in pm-utils development. I am strongly opposed to switching to anything else just because we can. -- Stefan Seyfried R&D Team Mobile Devices | "Any ideas, John?"
