I don't know, I never had a schedule. This port was intended first to
give an idea of how to start the port to Unix and I think it's pretty
functionnal already. It depends if some people can step in and finalize
it (contact me for a write access to the repository). I don't want to do
all the work, that would not be in the overall spirit of the project.
What remains to be done, as pointed by you, is the graph window
(technical problem with a scrolling window which prevented me to make
the picking and add the commands attached to the view) as well as the
TCL console (this seems fairly simple) + some details and fixes. The
priority is more on the existing clients right now (the shipping of 1.1
of WinCvs), as well as on the MacOS X port of MacCvs and on third
parties developments (Jerzy work and an upcoming Cvs shell extension in
explorer done by Francis Irving).
