The task proper is done, but I'm flat out on a big release schedule  
at work.  As soon as I have a couple of days outside the release  
(where I can stand to be still on my computer) I just need to write a  
test case or two, and check that everything is behaving as expected...

Once I started managing my patch queue with quilt I gave up  
maintaining the Arch repositories, so they are certainly very out of  
date by now (if they even still work at all).  But you're right, we  
need to get past the release first, and once the dust has settled on  
that, I would love nothing more than to move from CVS to a modern  
SCM :-D

Cheers,
        Gary
