What about a CVS to http gateway. I have planned such a thing and it would
not be very hard to do (there is a VCS::CVS perl module). One could select a
page and would be presented with the option to edit the html, enter a userid
and password, and click commit. The system would access CVS and check it in
with the user's account.
