Actually, when one want to get to the cvs repository through our web page, he needs 3 more clicks if he know what is he seeking for (Developers->CVS Repository->web interface does the trick).

I think that cvsweb is pretty much used between developers and contributors (but personally, when I need to check something through cvsweb, I'm not going through main web page, I just click on cvsweb.freebsd.org)... > - Murray -- Cheers, Daniel Gerzo
