Hi, David,
Thanks for giving it a try.
I tried it after the FSF security problems (these were fixed in december 2003,
so I tried somewhere in january 2004). The thing to make sure when getting
things from CVS is to make sure that you're using version 2 of the SSH
protocol. This can be done by an entry in ssh_config.
...
I just did an anonymous checkout. It worked fine.
Cheers,
Wolfgang
