Well,
  I'm not sure its' the fastest/easiest solution.  However it
is the one we all seem to readily understand :)
  I think branching would probably work, but if your not comfortable
with it, then I'd wait for an opportune time to try it out and crutch
by in the manner your most comfortable...

I had thought about that.  I don't like the idea of having to maintain
that though - it's much more straight-forward (to me) to maintain
seperate trees (as gruesome as it may seem).  I need to learn CVS better :-/

My current strategy is looking like:
.../struts/bugs/
    jakarta-struts/ ("virgin" code)
        by-bugid/
            12702/
                jakarta-struts/ (includes changes for bugid 12702)
            10348/
                jakarta-struts/ (includes changes for bugid 12348)

etc ... Nasty as it appears, I think it's probably the "fastest/easiest"
solution.

I'll dig into the cvs texinfo docs and see if I can familiarize myself
enough with branching to use that alternative.  I would want my diffs
built with regard to the jakarta cvs tree though - not mine.

Thanks!
