Legal stuff != productivity :-)
Two repositories would explain the delay between code fixes and them appearing
in CVS. It would be nice to get to see changes earlier but I guess you have
enough to do without adding to it.

No, there are two masters CVS and a source control system inside Microsoft.
This is required because other Microsoft employees are not allowed to work
against the Open Source code. I'm responsible for integrating the changes made
by Microsoft employees across to CVS and I'm responsible for incorporating
changes made by non-Microsoft employees into CVS only after an assignment
agreement is signed. Basically, I'm a "desired bottleneck" by Microsoft legal.
Fun.

Subject: [WiX-users] WiX CVS Source
On other open source projects I have worked on the source code is
updated when bugs are fixed. This gives you the opportunity to see the
changes and build the code if you need to work with them or validate
them. With WiX this doesn't seem to be the case, the source is not
updated until the next release or sometimes after the release.
I assume this is because the CVS source is not the main repository but a
clone of it. Would it be possible to either update CVS as changes are
made or make CVS the master?
