CVS dead?

It seems everybody is moving to other version control softwares, e.g., Subversion, Bazaar-NG, and Mercurial. What's about CVS? Yesterday I tried to checkout latest code from CVS repository at SF.net. Unfortunately, I got connection refused. It may be just a temporary failure but I have never expected to see this kind of thing at SF.net. By the way, my office is still CVS. There is no exact plan to migrate. Personally, I like Bazaar-NG but Subversion is much more simple in development model. My team don't want to make development process too complicate so Subversion is our choice by now.

In my opinion, CVS is good except only handling binary file and not atomic behavior. It's not too bad. Anyway, we have better ones. Sadly.
