This is the first time I have heard about Subversion but I am excited to know more, I have already started reading the book and have installed it to experiment with.
It seems promising but when I asked one of my Perl Guru friends here is what he has to say:
"
I was under the impression that bitkeeper was better:

but I think either of three works fine. Versioning is over-rated and should be transparent.

What do you guys think about subversion?
Frankly, I didn't know it even existed before the following email.
I would love to see what you guys think about it and will it really replace CVS one day (may be it is already doing so).
There is a link to an ongoing book on subversion at the end of the email.
Waiting, to hear from you.

May be this is food for thought while you prepare the presentation.
I have already voted for Subversion and plan to be there.
Thanks
Ali

I *finally* got in to using Subversion (svn) a couple days ago. I
converted a bunch of CVS repositories to SVN and last night I read through
about half of the "Version Control with Subversion" book[1] (the hardcopy
version). It's a thing of beauty. I finally got through my head what I
thought I understood already about branching and tagging in Subversion
too. Pure simplicity.
Would there be an audience at the 19 April SPUG meeting for a presentation
on converting from CVS to SVN and using Subversion?
Don't answer my question here. Please vote at the poll:

If you don't have a Meetup.com account, it's easy to create one.
If there's questions or discussion on this, reply to this message.
