There are two pages for the project create. Go to the next page by clicking on the button at the end of this form. The options on the CollabNet page says: Versioning component: Which versioning component to use for the project. The choices are CVS, and SCM (based on Subversion). I understand your desire for a migration path. It is a big topic that we are discussing within both CollabNet and java.net teams. (And yes, Brian is certainly part of the discussion.Feel free to contact him if you like. ) Thanks for the clarification. :-) Helen Chen java.net Site Manager Oh I see the confusion, that is the first page.

I see no SubVersion in sight. Also, you do not allow existing projects to switch. This is not the best solution. I'd prefer to see a migration path and a clear option in the sign up.

We are rapidly approaching almost 200 Subversion projects already, and have had very positive feedback from our new project owners. :-) The option to select Subversion is available when you create your new project.

They seem expensive. You can almost get a dedicated server for their prices. They do seem to have a lot of good services though. But at the same time I love the power of root on my server! I can install ANYTHING! hehe Never looked at TextDrive until this morning. They seem expensive. You can almost get a dedicated server for their prices.

I think they should also do this for non-open source efforts. I'd use it. For now, TextDrive will do. Good stuff. I think they should also do this for non-open source efforts. I’d use it.
