Based on Sir Raorn's reply, I tried:
C:\home\suresh\develop\vim\cvs>c:\opt\cvs\cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL
PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/vim checkout vim7
which did lots of stuff and ended with:
U vim7/src/xxd/xxd.c
cvs checkout: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected
Repeating the command resulted in the same message:
cvs checkout: Updating vim7/src/xxd
cvs checkout: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected
Doing only update as follows:
C:\home\suresh\develop\vim\cvs>c:\opt\cvs\cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL
PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/vim update
resulted in the same message:
cvs update: Updating vim7/src/xxd
cvs update: dying gasps from vim.cvs.sourceforge.net unexpected
Is this normal? If not, what should I do?
Thanks,

If CVS is sick, you can always fall back on good old FTP (or even HTTP):
the full set of sources (for all supported platforms and languages)
consists of
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/unix/vim-7.0.tar.bz2
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/extra/vim-7.0-extra.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/extra/vim-7.0-lang.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.0/
If you want to make sure that you have the latest runtime files, they
are in uncompressed text form at
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/
except its dos/ subdirectory
If you have Python installed, you can also use A-A-P, see
ftp://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/runtime/README.txt
for details.
Best regards,
Tony.
