I understand the problems of cvs: that's why I use git for my development projects. But the gedasymbols cvs tree isn't a development tree, it's an image of a website, and using cvs as a mere import/export tool is trivial and trouble-free in my experience.

Can you explain why in more detail? I'm puzzled.

I'm getting hungry. We should talk some time about adding spice-prototype attributes to your symbols so that they may be used to make simulation netlists with my spice-noqsi back end. With the right prototype, slotted and composite components are now compatible with SPICE netlisting, so the same schematic may be used for both layout and simulation.
