I've been working on this lately and finally got it reach a
distributable state and invite (urge!) you to try it. CVSView
has the same basic functionnalities as the ViewCVS CGI, is generic (i.e. it just generates metadata about the repository's contents)
and even documented! It requires both jakarta-ORO and the JRCS package currently in the jakarta commons sandbox.
Tried only with 2.0.2 on GNU/Linux.

Some questions:
1) is there a way to connect to the last release of a file in 'review' mode like for
http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/*checkout*/xml-cocoon2/README.txt?rev=HEAD
Not yet, will add that.
BTW, did you look into Eclipse CVS libraries? They are very powerful and provide a total abstraction of the CVS server (even SSH tunneling)
Why? subversion uses webdav which is basically just another HTTP request. No need to connect to APIs of sort rather than normal HTTPClient API.2) does it work remotely? I mean, does it work if the CVS is not hosted on the same machine where Cocoon is running (and no, there is no NFS between them) [since you are using JRCS I would tend to think no, but didn't look into the code so I'd rather ask]
The reason for this is that I would love to be able to have a running cocoon publish documents *directly* from CVS, that is use CVS as a versioning content repository, which is the step one toward a poor-man (but not so poor on functionality!) CMS.
Will be very interesting for forrest as well.
Unfortunatelly, no, as that would require parsing the CVS output and be
quite ineficient. Also, I'm waiting for subversion which has a public C interface.
Or I'm missing something?
