Dates in the 'cvs log' command can be slightly tricky, I agree.
What you are wanting to do is
cvs log -d "2001-11-02<2001-11-09"
to extract all log messages between 2/11 and 9/11 inclusive. You can
even do cvs log -d "2001-11-09>2001-11-02" to get the same thing (note
that the '<' or'>' sign points to the smaller date.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Malcolm
