The only likely problem is if SF cancels the project for being dormant. They threatened to do that to a project I did, last update 2003, but the website is still there (I didn't use their CVS). It requires someone being alert enough to notice SF have sent out a 'reply or we'll cancel in 30 days' email, which might fall through the cracks. Maybe keep a 'mirror' site on riscos.info but tell people the official site is sf.net. Then if SF breaks the files are still safe.
