One man's flow is another man's impedence. ;)

If others like CVS then there's nothing stopping them from making a tool 
that integrates with it.

For myself, I think Magic Carpet got it right for the sorts of workflows 
I find myself involved in:  it's stack-based rather than script- or 
object-based, and in the projects I work in we usually assign owners by 
stack and nothing more atomic.

Better still, Magic Carpet runs on any standard FTP server, with no 
specialized software needed on the server at all.

But that's just me.  If CVS appeals to others I don't understand what 
they're waiting for.  They could open a Yahoo (or other) list and get 
started today.
