What I'd like to see is the changes from the FreeBSD cvs tree being updated in my local tree as vendor imports to a vendor branch. This allows personal development on the head and you can merge in changes from the vendor as and when you like. I don't know whether cvsup could do this or not since I've stuck with ctm up until now but it would be a nice feature that would solve everyone's problems. -- Dr Paul Richards, Originative Solutions Ltd.
