One possible effect of your email may have been that people simply did not attempt to check in their work until you had 'sorted things out'.

That way you'd have reduced load and therefore a snappier system.

No, we stayed on the laptop. It was eventually moved from the other site to a proper server room, still with a sticky note on it. We might have forgotten to mention this fact to some people though...

So going to production for you is moving a laptop to the datacenter? Yeah. Bullshit.

What? No?

CVS is a version control system. We kept (a copy of ) the source in the laptop.

The actual system we developed was running in machines guarded by hordes of sysadmins grumped up to the proper level, possibly even employed by IBM.
