You sent this to me privately. Please don't do that - if you had sent it to the list, someone else might have replied by now.

There are 3 possibilities: 1) It may be sufficient that anyone who can commit, can branch. If so, a readers or writers file should suffice. 2) Use the hook scripts in CVSROOT to control access. IIRC, there is a cvs_acls included in the distro. 3) Corey Minyard's ACL patch. NB: I have never used any of these myself, so consider this as a pointer to further research.
