But I think I'll set > up CVS next weekend. ;) The simplest thing I found was to download the cvs repository, I'll get you a cvsup file that explains how to do this as soon as I get my machines up in working order. In the meanwhile check out /usr/share/examples/{cvs,cvsup} those have files that will help you download your own cvs repository. btw, did we go over the issues about developing for -CURRENT instead of for -STABLE about FIVE TIMES ALREADY? Let me reitirate (or just irritate): IF YOU DON'T DO IT FOR -CURRENT THEY WON'T TAKE THE PATCHES, THANK YOU. thanks, -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-sparc" in the body of the message
