Before I started using CVSNT, when I didn't understand concurrent methods and ignored files and merging etc. etc., the thought of a conflict had me concerned. I read up on the matter (including a long-ish explanation, almost a sermon, on the promise of concurrent development) and I came around. However, not everyone will research before making a decision. It seems that Tony is trying to satisfy putting a check in the column of CVSNT for "supports exclusive edits" and gets rid of the footnote that there are lots of workarounds (and to the uneducated future CVS admin / manager, danger). It certainly is better than "well, yes, it sort-of supports that". I don't know if there's any reason why cvsrc with edit -c and commit -c would work as Jerzy noted, but I assume there is some important distinction (I don't use either yet, but may soon start with some files).
