Yikes!
Could you possibly give links to where you're seeing this? I quickly
scanned the website and a few of the wiki pages and don't see links to
CVS anywhere.
SVN is _much_ more updated, and there've been relatively recent
releases: http://search.cpan.org/search?query=mogilefs&mode=all
You'll pull server, utils, client, etc, separately from CPAN. Or they're
all together in SVN. For the most part what's in SVN is pretty stable,
but I'd still recommend trying the latest stable release first. If
there're critical bugs in that we should be forced to fix it.
I'd agree that there's been a bit of a lull in development recently, but
I personally, at least, have a huge interest in keeping MogileFS alive,
as does my employer. So it might not be this week or next week, but
it'll continue to be developed by us.

Greetings all.
On the mogilefs wiki, it says: If you look around you can find MogileFS
directly on the Danga website, in an abandoned CVS repository and in the
current SVN repository. If you pull from the website you will not have
admin tools to make setup easier. If you pull from CVS you will have a
version from October, 2004. If you pull from SVN you will have a shiny
new version that works best with this documentation.
Now, call me old fashioned, but I get nervous pulling down something
from the trunk of a repository for production uses. What it brings to
mind is grabbing the latest cvs snapshot of MySQL and putting a
production system on it.
How stable the trunk of subversion is at all times? What version control
there is on the trunk. (Does it have active development going on? Is it
just bug fixes at this point?) Is there a better place for me to grab
the latest stable version (IE: tag, branch, tarball, etc..) ?
Thanks!
