Subversion brings CVS up to snuff with commercial version control systems
like Perforce, but it doesn't add the features we really need.

We need a version control system for structured documents. However, it's
not clear that a differencing-style version control system is adequate for
the OHS's needs. Most likely, versioning will have to be tied to the
editing system.
