Depending on what the developer intends to do with the source, I can see it
as a benefit if CVS Ecliipse-SourceReferences does not work. If the
developer creates and contributes a patch using CVS, it will be rather
difficult to merge it.

Anonymous CVS is broken for Hudson builds

 

Denis,

Was it really necessary to terminate the anonymous service?  I am just
worried about the impact that that will have on WTP users who wish to get
the source for the Juno release (and prior releases).  We went to the effort
of putting in the appropriate Eclipse-SourceReferences information in all of
our plugins, and all through the Juno release, these were set up for
anonymous CVS access to our source.  Now those Eclipse-SourceReferences are
useless.  Is there really no possibility of restoring the read-only
anonymous access?  (And I know that WTP is not the only project that set up
Eclipse-SourceReferences to CVS code- even the platform in all of its Indigo
releases, has CVS Eclipse-SourceReferences.)

FWIW,

Because we've terminated the anonymous CVS service.

You can browse repos here:  http://git.eclipse.org/c

If you can't find it, then you could ask on that project's -dev list  :-)
