I have said everything I could about the bad effects of encouraging
people to continue to use cvsps-2.x, it didn't budge Junio an
inch, and I'm tired of fighting about it. Quibbling about the
semantics of 'impose' will neither change these facts nor make
me any less frustrated with the outcome.
I will continue to do what I can to make cvsps-3.x and cvs-fast-export as
bug-free as possible, given the innate perverseness of CVS. They
won't be perfect; they will be *better*.
