I agree here, we really need to be sucking more stuff into CVS, not
less. It doesn't cost us much to just host, we don't have to make it
part of GNOME until it's ready. Miguel is the master of getting
contributors and we should all study his approach. ;-)
It might be nice to get CVS moved to ssh though; perhaps we can
do that now that we have a new machine.
