I actually would prefer anonymous cvs from another repository, for
security reasons as well as the above (since I'd like anon cvs, but
havn't even come close to qualifying as a developer for many years at
this point). Can someone get rsync access or perhaps, could you copy the
CVS repository directory to an ftp location for read-only mirroring into
an anonymous cvs site?
I might could provide such a site, if there is interest, and if the
people who run the machine that I allow anon access from don't mind (I'm
pretty sure they might not, but would only check if there is interest).
best,
