The latter is incorrect; CVS does have a notion of project and handles files that are in one revision but not in another. Files shared between projects are also no problem. CVS is a layer on top of RCS. It doesn't actually work without RCS. I run CVS for a shared project on a remote server (using ssh for encryption) across a 28k8 link, so I cannot comment on slow checkout times.
