If DVS can use multiple backends, wouldn't Subversion be a better choice?
DVS doesn't care what SCM it's used with - it just syncs the image with the filesystem, and how the files got there is Somebody Else's Problem. So SVN would work great with it. (In fact, DVS barely cares about the filesystem - any external system that can store and retrieve chunk-format source is fine, just write a simple Dumper/Loader pair for it).
Subversion would be especially cool if someone implemented WebDAV in Squeak, so that we could talk to it directly rather than going to files. But, yes, it would be a good choice even without that. The only reason I personally use CVS right now is that sourceforge is a convenient place to host a public repository. If you set up a public SVN server I could probably be convinced to move Seaside, etc, to it.
