Oh right, now I understand. 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. Cheers.

If I buy a copy of WinDelete, and it doesn't delete Windows,
am I entitled to my money back?
