Having a network accessible repository for information will be
useful, but I'm not sure that CVS is the way, if for no other
reason than because it doesn't exploit /n/dump very well (since
log and delta data is prepended to the RCS files, meaning they're
rewritten each time I check in a change).
Versioning at the level of CVS et al is a good thing, but it'd
be nice to see a Plan 9 based solution instead of using CVS just
because it's already there.
Something that makes use of append-only files to store log and
delta information and provides a filesystem view of the repository
makes more sense to me.
