Oh, oh, let me vote for "implied vendor branch" again, then,
so that you can do local branches and checkouts and merges
relative to a steadily advancing "vendor branch" CVSup'ed from
"the vendor".

It would be *too cool* if someone were to cause sendmail, ISC BIND,
and other CVS maintained projects from other vendors to show up in
FreeBSD as a constantly updated vendor branch.

I'm pretty sure the Ports people would like this, too.  8-).
