Check. I will send updated CVS checkout instructions to the list.

I just added a README file to the automakejar module.
But haven't seen a commit message on address@hidden

Except for the commit messages going to the mailinglist everything seems
to work fine. Thanks a lot for your work making this go so fast and
smoothly!
