When there are 2 developers who can use CVS, CVS is really necessary. Beg=
in to learn it
and you will understand that CVS is not for 33,4% developers, but just fo=
r you :)
I don't insist on using CVS because at my work, I cannot use it because o=
f the firewall.
But if you both can use it, just learn and use it (and forget the 66,6% w=
ho should learn
too :)

RCS is old now :)
CVS is the new one. And CVS is old too: some use subversion or arch now.
At Sourceforge, there is only CVS, that's why you should use CVS :)
Arch looks good. Subversion seems to be just a new CVS with less implemen=
tation mistakes.

Ben,
About perfchart.png, I sent you a patch. I consider this as a big bug, be=
cause perfgraph
cannot be used.
About perfgraph.cgi, I told you how to do it. Have you tried yet ? Does i=
t work ?
If yes, is it possible that I work on Monday on a new version, or do you =
prefer to send
me the latest patch ?
If no, send me the latest patch and I will do the change.

Same for me :)
