The value of change-set mgmt and resolving the BK issue are quite noble.
I would hate though for the subversion project to fracture.

I would encourage folks to focus on walking before running. By walking
I mean supplant cvs, by running I mean supplant BK/ClearCase/TrueChange/etc...

We wont get to supplanting BK et al until we achieve capabilities on par
or superior than CVS.

Just $0.02 from a list lurker...
