On Monday, the Subversion project is scheduled to release version 1.0 of their version control system, under development for several years now. Subversion was intended from its inception as the CVS replacement and it comes with many important features previously found only on commercial VCS like Perforce. It was designed for better remote performance, and it is multi-platform with a GUI/CLI front-end.

"it comes with many important features previously found only on commercial VCS like Perforce. The VCS is multi-platform and as well as its GUI front-end."
not meant as a troll but does she mean "CVS" instead of "VCS"? or is this perhaps just another acronym that I haven't heard of before? Such as googling "VCS" returned "Visualization and Computation System" which I guess could make sense... Really, this a problem with acronyms because a small typo can change a lot of meaning. For example there is a difference between being "DOA" and "EOA" (though I must admit from where I'm from there isn't much one!) but it's only one key away on your standard QWERTY.
