I know it's been slash-dotted and all, but it only seems fair that we wait for the actual source-code from the people who are apparently still working on it... That said, we obviously prefer code with a BSD license. So it is reasonable to think that some form of OpenCVS might eventually show up in FreeBSD, the same way that OpenSSH and PF have. But there is no way we can guess at a timetable for that now, when even OpenBSD has not shipped a release with OpenCVS yet! -- Garance Alistair Drosehn = gad@gilead.netel.rpi.edu Senior Systems Programmer or gad@freebsd.org Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute or drosih@rpi.edu
