Not entirely accurate. If there are compelling reasons to use another |
| 6 |
solution instead of CVS, we are certainly willing to look at other |
| 7 |
solutions. "Because I like it better" or "because it works better for me" |
| 8 |
is generally not a good reason. |

We would prefer to support only one version control system, be it CVS, |
| 11 |
BitKeeper, Subversion or whatever. We don't really have the resources, |
| 12 |
time or inclination to support multiple version control systems. If there |
| 13 |
are strong, clearly articulated reasons why Gentoo, as a project, cannot |
| 14 |
progress without supporting multiple version control systems, then we're |
| 15 |
certainly willing to look at that, too. |

Anyone developer wishing to change over to a new system should probably |
| 18 |
start with a GLEP. |
