The date that CVS for src will cease to be kept in sync with SVN and when cvsup etc. are officially withdrawn for src -- that date has not been announced yet[*] All we know with any certainly is that CVS is deprecated and will be withdrawn sooner rather than later. There will be an announcement closer to the end-date once that has firmed up. I assume that there will be a reasonable grace period for die-hard CVS/cvsup users to finish getting themselves sorted out, although given the quantity of advance warnings sensible people will already be well advanced (if not complete) in their projects for migrating away. Cheers, Matthew [*] Unlike ports CVS which is closing down on 28th February
