[ajug-members] Which Source Version Control System do you prefer?

[Bill Siggelkow]

Subversion -- it is the most natural evolution from CVS and it fixes  
the CVS headaches of unversioned directories. There are other  
benefits such as ability to perform disconnected operations,  
authentication and authorization via Apache 2.0 server, WebDAV  
support, cross-platform, open source, free, etc.

Can't say enough good things about it so far ....
