I've realized for a while that having a local copy of the repo is the best way to do things but I just don't have the disk space. Because you list specific collections in your sup-file I didn't work out that it was the repo you are cvsup'ing but, on hindsight, ``release=cvs'' should have been a clue. Thanks for all the info. I may be a bit slow on the uptake, but I get there eventually :) I've learned something from this thread.
