Hi, 

I could use some help: I'm trying to check out xc, and am unable to access 
anoncvs.xfree86.org. When will this be back up? Are there any mirrors of
the CVS 
tree (every one of the mirror sites I checked pointed back to the xfree86
CVS!) I did 
find one in germany ([EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs/X), but it has a
stuck lock 
on one directory, so the checkout can't get any further:

cvs server: [01:00:37] waiting for cvs's lock in
/cvs/X/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree98/
vga256/wabs

It's been like that for a day.

A basic question--is there a way to get cvs to ignore such locks, bypass
and keep 
going witht he rest of the checkout. Or just take whatever's there, even if
it's in the 
middle of a change? I  doubt I even need that part of the code. Is there a
way to 
checkout sub-parts of the whole 'xc'?

Finally, will a checkout xc automatically checkout the very latest version?

Thanks for your help,

John Iversen
