Besides, there are some client applications that expect to use RCS as the backend, not CVS. I'm more worried about the text/binary issues -- especially mixtures. E.g. if the revision files are stored on a binary mount, but the working files are stored on text mounts -- or vice versa. Do things still work? (AFAIRC, even CVS still has difficulty with this) --Chuck
