Yes, I understood what you meant ;-) What I was saying was that I didn't
see the need to generate statcvs reports if you were not logged in.
What's important is simply that you are able to run maven site without
it failing. Using the -o option would do that. I find that a better
general solution to your problem rather than tweak each plugin with
internet access with special options.

I don't know what -use-history is about. In any case, it wouldn't help
as we're performing the cvs log before running statcvs.

ok. So you're saying it should stay as it currently is. Cool.

WRT the cvs password: You have to provide a solution without having to
type a password (like uploading your public key to SF) and then using
putty/tortoisecvs or pageant or whatever else (putty/tortoisecvs is
really the best option I think).
