I only care about people actively doing checkins.  Is that set larger
than Tony today ;-)?

SVN is better than CVS in many ways, and migrations usually go
smoothly, so it's a good move in the absence of killer objections. 
People make fewer mistakes with SVN, and mistakes that do get made are
easier to repair under SVN, so it's a good change for code quality. 
It's also better for experimenting, as branches are much easier &
faster to create and destroy (try that under CVS) under SVN too.

In particular, Skip will adjust; IIRC, he had a lot of artificial
problems adjusting to Python's SVN move too :-)
