It is highly highly unfortunate that you are so misinformed. I don't
see how there is way anyone could cooperate with people who don't do
research. Like, come on.

That's nice -- saying that you are doing the same as what OpenCVS is
doing. But I really doubt you have any idea what is going on in
OpenCVS. I doubt you even have a friggin clue. If you really wanted
to know what OpenCVS is, you would go read the code. That's what one
reads when one has questions, right? The code. I don't understand
why your first point of contact is getting onto a load of mailing
lists.

Then maybe have your programmers go look at the code.
