Fine, if we agree to do this I become less concerned but it means we must
ensure thud is as well maintained as freefall from now on and we may as well
offload some things to it completely. Maybe move cvs entirely to thud and
keep freefall for the lists.

We should change the root password too since thud's is hardly secure. It'd
be easiest if we made it the same as freefall's so we won't all have to 
phone the US to get the new one then.
