I note that there is no NEWS file in cvs for coda, and the Changelog
doesn't mention this yet.  Has CVS coda been changed in an
incompatible way.

Sorry if I am being repetitive, but it is really important that every
incompatible rvm change (venus or codasrv), no matter how minor, be
announced on the mailing list.  I would argue further that a
rvm-prechange-yyyymmdd tag should also be laid down before doing this.

Perhaps this is happening, but I don't feel confident that I'm not
going to lose by using CVS.
(And since I'm losing with 'local inconsistent objects' today, I am
inclined to upgrade.)
