I think passing up an opportunity to migrate to SVN would be
contrary to the spirit of Boost being a cutting-edge community.
It's not like it's a gratuitous switch with no obvious benefits.
I think anybody who's taken a look at SVN can see that there are
definitely improvements over CVS.

To be honest with you, taking a look at what is available in the
Java world, I have to say that the C++ community is working in
the Stone Age still.  It needs every leg up it can get.
