Seconded. I guess any solution that requires some non-trivial amount of
CVS surgery probably won't be very much appreciated from gnome.org admin
land, both since there is a big question of how and by whom such a thing
would be maintained, and also the quite frightening possibilities of
such potential fiddling, with the cvs server that the whole project
depends upon, going wrong. If anyone wants to do such a thing in cvs
they are very likely better off doing it with their own cvs server
mirror.
