Would you like to take over maintainership of the anoncvs services?
It somehow got dropped in my lap, and it is certainly not something I
ever wanted to be responsible for. I am too busy already taking care
of the CVSup mirrors.
It is extremely hard to support more than just a few simultaneous
anoncvs clients at once on one server. You need screaming fast
hardware and a monstrous RAM disk just to handle 4-6 of them.
