Ahh, I see. What about just opening CVS for the software that Gentoo creates itself? There is already the rsync for the ebuilds, it's the code that CVS should be used for. From what I can see in viewcvs, that would include doc, gentoo, gentoo-projects, and gentoo-src. It doesn't even have to be up to date with the dev's CVS, just a mirror that users could track with command line cvs. - Chris -- [email protected] mailing list
