Subversion greater than CVS

I recently finished upgrading Typo (the software that runs Nothing To See Here) from 1.6.8 to 2.0.x, and at the same time moved my local changes into Subversion. Subversion is a definite improvement over CVS. Being able to rearrange my repository (I did this twice before I was happy with it) was really nice. Once I was used to it, I gained the ability to just add things anywhere I want and figure I could sort them out later. The write-once nature of the directory structure in CVS had always created a lot of anxiety whenever I was starting a project. I think I will shortly be transitioning all of my personal projects to Subversion. All the cool kids are doing it. Of course, if I was a really cool kid I'd be using SVK, but I think I'm not cool enough for that yet.
