Subversion does more or less everything you would want CVS to do (and 
then some), but better.  You should take a look at it sometime, there's 
very little learning curve for someone who knows CVS already.  Many of 
the useful third-party tools work with (or have equivalents for) 
Subversion, and it's more free (as in not GPL) than CVS is.
