Yup, that's right. :-(

The one person who is most adamantly opposed to SVN and is so adamantly
pushing VSS is a partner in the business and so there is no one above him
who can do any of that.

He is a "my way or the highway" type whose mind typically cannot be changed.

He brings a LOT to the table and is extremely valuable, I'd say crucial, to
the success of this enterprise in every other way except this, and that
makes it difficult-to-impossible to convince the other partners to overrule
him on issues like this where it is perceived that adequate alternatives
(e.g. VSS, which they consider adequate) exist.

I am also a partner but I am only one vote.

See what I'm up against? :-(
