Can you provide me with copies of previous system releases? In doing a
cursory check of the releases since 1.0, I didn't find the actual source
files from most of the ftp sites. 

What I'm getting at is this, If it were required to replicate an OS
environment level I was working on 1995 for some engineering project(some
exact FreeBSD release date for instance), could I rebuild that release I had
from your ftp sources or sites? In using the Concurrent Version System (CVS)
wouldn't I be destroying the engineering design of my own system by using
CVS?

I would think the liabilities would be difficult to substantiate if a
business transaction or engineering design failed due to a fault? I'm just
interested in knowing how business continuation operates within the
framework of CVS.
