I tracked this down a while back but could not fix it because I don't know python. None of the biopython developers had the time to assist at the time. Truth be told it is one of our lower priority "to fix" issues and viewcvs is the best of the web-to-cvs bridges that I've ever worked with so there are few alternatives. On a brighter side I've built a new anonymous cvs server for the O}B|F. This will replace the current OpenBSD system which has had some worrying panic crashes this week. During this project which took most of today and yesterday I was finally able to cleanly compile and integrate "cvsgraph" into the system. 'cvsgraph' draws graphical image maps on the fly showing revisions, branches and tag history for a given file. As an example check out: http://newcvs.open-bio.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/viewcvs.cgi/biojava-live/README?graph=1.10&cvsroot=biojava I'm going to start the DNS changes this evening so within 48 hours the new server will be visible at cvs.biojava.org. Right now you can only get to it via the 'newcvs.open-bio.org' hostname.
