No doubt on former, given the different overall goals of the two,
but I'd like to better understand the latter.

I'm sad to hear that, sorry for the waste of time. Maybe I could have
been of some help, knowing that.

Well, here I'd gladly accept some more context, and possibly some more
details on the errors you found, expecially if they are related to how
tailor failed to build up reasonable changesets from upstream CVS.

If on the contrary the problem is related to monotone support, I'm
sure somebody could be interested as well.

Thank you,
