Do you still need CTM?

I just received an email from one of the FreeBSD people telling me
that they are worried about the security threat posed by CTM.  They
would like to disconnect it from the base FreeBSD system.

Personally I have become extremely happy with using subversion, and if
CTM were to disappear, I could live without it very easily.

But maybe some of you feel differently.  One thing we could do is
1.  Create a CTM port;
2.  Put the deltas on a server other than official FreeBSD servers;
3.  Host our own mailing lists.

Honestly, I think the best thing to do is to close CTM.  But if anyone
else really wants CTM, and is willing to do (2) and (3), I can easily
do (1).

Opinions?
