They are config files for the FreeBSD base system. They are not config files *for* cvsup. Ie, the CVSup program *itself* does not need those files to exist for any reason. And if csup winds up in the base system, we'll just move those example files back in /usr/share/examples. Looking at the CVS logs, those files have been in that directory since sometime around 1996. It seems pointless to move them *now*, just as we are making some real progress towards having a cvsup-ish program in the base system. Or at least, I hope we are! -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
