"Since I've used cvs for a while, some of the info was a little basic. I enjoyed the highlights of why svn is superior to cvs, and the demo of Trac makes me want to use it TOMORROW. Thanks!" -

David Farr
"The Trac discussion was of no value since I can not (nor do I want to) meet the requirments needed to use the product. This was also somewhat of a problem with the Subversion discussion. Until I am sure that I can easily install on IIS the value of Subversion is limited for me. Yes, version control is good. But .... Perhaps another detailed discussion of installation procedures would be useful. " -
